Her legacy consists of winning regional track medals, achieving world championships as a master’s level athlete, being selected as her university’s athlete of the year, and coaching successfully at the local, provincial, national and international levels. Since her induction in 1992, Joyce has been an advocate for the New Brunswick Sports Hall of Fame and generous contributor to our

[Hall of Famer and Sports Ambassador, Joyce Slipp will be on hand to describe her involvement].

By creating hands-on exhibits that give visitors the opportunity to engage with often puzzling scientific concepts, science centres have been at the frontlines of interactive experiences for many years. And as more and more museums make the transition from traditional static exhibits to something more immer-sive and interactive, the challenges that come with making this transition become very apparent. In this session, you will learn of the challenges that many museums encounter including a limited number of staff and an even more limited budget. He will give examples of some of Science East’s successes – also some of less successful attempts – to provide visitors with a memorable experience that stays with them after they leave.

Michael EdwardsDirector of Strategic Initiatives & Exhibits, Science EastMichael moved to Canada from Scotland in 1992 to attend the University of New Brunswick where he completed an M.Sc. in Biology. He got involved with Science East science centre and museum as a volunteer shortly after comple-tion of his degree, a role which evolved into a fulltime job. When they opened a permanent science centre in 1999, he was the sole employee and spent his days in an old jail wondering when they would hire someone else for him to talk to. During his more than 20 years at Science East, he’s done a little bit of everything from planning school programs and summer camps, to designing exhibits and performing science shows. He has also give many conference presentations throughout Canada and US on topics ranging from how stu-dents view scientists to how to do an entire science class using just one sheet of paper.

Outing – Tour of the Kings Landing, our living museumWelcome to Kings Landing—are you ready to make a little history of your own? Kings Landing takes aim at how history is told and pushes the boundaries of open-air museums. This 300-acre museum houses over 70,000 artefacts, offers over 40 exhibits, theatre, workshops as well as a fully 1st person interpreted village where you can step back in time with a community of costumed characters in 70 historic buildings. From the American Revolution to the turn of the 20th century, Kings Landing is a collection of stories and events that shaped New Brunswick through settlement, the birth of the great nation of Canada, and to the age of progress.

Session 8 – The Art of Story TellingAt Kings Landing, we keep history alive through the telling of our stories. Our stories change and evolve depending on our audience as everyone experiences something different when they visit a living museum. Stories can be shared through the different senses; smell, taste, sound, touch or engagement. Stories can be told through a text, seeing artefacts in a staged environment, interaction with a first-person interpreter, costumes or hands on activities.

Ruth MurgatroydInterpretation Manager, Exhibitions Experience, Kings LandingRuth graduated from St. Thomas University in Fredericton where she received a BA in History with Honours. Passionate about history, the move into the museum industry was a natural fit. She was the Executive Director of the York-Sunbury Historical Society, Ltd. and worked at the Fredericton Region Museum for over nine years where she was responsible for all aspects of museum operations and programming. She accepted a role on the Board of Directors for the provincial museum association in 2011, became President in 2015 and is now serving as Past President. While with the association, she has been active in the museum community, both provincially and nationally. Her work at Kings Landing involves planning and overseeing museum exhibitions and related programming. She works closely with co-workers, partner organizations and experts to ensure that history is accessible, interesting and inclusive.

Session 9 – The Living Museum ExperienceA living museum is a broad concept but it perfectly describes who we are at Kings Landing. History becomes alive when it meets the public, whether through static exhibits, re-enactment or first-person interpretation. During this experience, a story is told. We can taste food our ancestors also tasted, hear a song, or purchase a souvenir to remind us of all these experiences. Living museums keep history alive through their stories.
