Description
Résumé:This year’s Association of European Open Air Museums (AEOM) Biannual Conference 2019 took place at multiple sites in Poland, over four days in late August. Its two key themes were ‘How Open Air Museums represent different cultural identities’, and ‘Representing the past - technical solutions for reconstruction and archaeological interpretation’. I was invited to participate in order to discuss how EXARC and AEOM can best partner up, and also how to share best practices from my workplace Colonial Williamsburg. The four-day conference was split into half days, consisting of discussions and site visits. This was the first time I had been to a conference like this and I was eager to see how it worked.
