Over the past several years, the museum has taken on a student during the summer months to help with extra visitors. This year, I will be joining the team! My name is Eva Miller and I’m the 2017 Summer Student for the Sunshine Coast Museum and Archives. I am currently in my second year of the nursing program at the University of British Columbia Okanagan. I was raised in Gibsons, and I’m excited to be able to spend my summer helping out at an organization so important to our community!
Throughout the course of my time here at the Museum, I hope to learn more about the history of the Sunshine Coast, as well as further my understanding about what happens behind the scenes. Having little prior experience in archival/curatorial studies, the Sunshine Coast Museum and Archives is a fantastic place for me to gain knowledge in the processes that are taken to keep collections and exhibits cared for. During the summer, I will have the opportunity to learn more about research procedures, collections care/documentation, and database software. I’ll also be putting out blog posts on varying topics, including Nursing on the Sunshine Coast.
I hope that my time here at the Sunshine Coast Museum and Archives will be a great way to learn more about the community that so many of us are lucky enough to call home.
Drop by the museum Wednesday to Sunday and say hi!
