This week we will be having a Zoom meeting on Wednesday, October 21st at 12:15 p.m. Our guest speaker will be Sean Charette, the Executive Director of the Wendell Gilley Museum in Southwest Harbor.
The Wendell Gilley Museum inspires artistic creativity and engagement with the natural world on Mount Desert Island and Downeast Maine for current and future generations through education, exhibitions, and programs, while honoring the legacy of noted bird carver Wendell Gilley.
A Maine native, Sean has been at the museum since 2017 after moving with his family from Williamstown, Massachusetts. There he spent two years working with three local museums (The Clark, Williams College Museum of Art and MASS MoCA) exploring how the museums could connect with local schools. For the prior eight years, Sean was on the left coast with the Getty Conservation Institute in Los Angeles, working internationally with museums and their historic collections. He holds a Master’s Degree in Conservation from the University of Durham in Northern England.
