Week 2; Arizona Science Center

My second week at the Arizona Science Center was all about the marketing team. Every day of the week I was working on something for the weekend events, it differed every day from spray painting props to proofreading ads promoting the events. I worked with the marketing team to make sure that this weekend would be a success.

The marketing team at the Arizona Science Center assigned me with the task of helping set up for the big weekend event celebrating Harry Potter’s birthday. It was a very big event that the marketing team came up with; Friday night was called “Science With a Twist” and it was an adult only party celebrating the Harry Potter franchise and Saturday was a day full of family events that also celebrated Harry Potter and science.
To help me break my nervousness and need for perfection, the marketing team told me to set up an entry table for the event in 5 minutes that represented Harry Potter. Having never seen any of the Harry Potter movies, I freaked out and tried to remember popular references that I have heard over my life. At the end of the 5 minutes this is what I came up with:

This was a very fun week for me because it exposed an entire job sector that I never really thought about. After working closely with the marketing team for a week, I could see myself taking a few classes in college to continue my interest in marketing.

MI FAMILIA

MI FAMILIA. As Sunday reaches its end, there's no longer workshops, reception tasks, tours, or any of the sort left. It surreal to not wake up with the sole purpose of going to the museum, a feeling I am going to miss. These last four weeks have opened my eyes to what surrounds me, taught me to seek more, to discover new assets in me, and has shown me to never conform to what I know; there's always room to grow. The team of MHAA has become my family and I can proudly say they are a part of the YAP family, which means that MHAA is part of of us, a part of you. I hope throughout the blogs, it has become clear how wonderful of a discovery this experience truly is, and it ended as great as it could ever be. During the week I researched Egyptian culture, gave tours to visitors, took the measures necessary to protect a painting (and I carried a giant bubble wrap through campus), and was in charge of handling and fixing the subtitles on an hour seminar, which would make the vid...

Successful Women in History- Final week in Atlanta

     The week has come to an end and so has the intership. This whole 5 weeks in Washington DC and Atlanta, Georgia has been quite a unique experience. It’s very dear and special to me. I can say I have been beyond blessed to meet all of the wonderful people and kids I have worked with during this past weeks. I’m glad my summer was like no other summer I lived. This one was very informative as well as educational.      This week was all about immigrants across the world to the United States. The kids and I learned that immigrants do not only come from Latin countries but also from the Middle East, Europe, Asia, etc. We read about many success stories of immigrant and undocumented families. For the kids to get a better understanding about immigration Mr. Andrew, the teacher, related it with the kids favorite foods! Such as hot dogs, pizza, french fries, donuts, tacos. These food had originated from Great Britain, Mexico, France, and United States. The kids...

Last Week at the Museum of Latin American Art

Last Week at the Museum of Latin American Art The last week at MOLAA was definitely a memorable culmination of the past three weeks of summer art camp. From the deinstallation of all the galleries at the museum, to the party for all summer art camp volunteers, and the installation of the art gallery "Undocumented Stories", this last week was was to remember. The first days were spent deinstalling all the galleries at the museum. This was a rather tedious job since I was given the task of removing the vinyl lettering placed on the walls of the exhibitions which provided background information on the artwork and pieces. This showed me the much thought that is put into the creation of exhibits and the message that is portrayed to the audience.  Additionally, I was also given the task of coordinating and creating a celebration party for the summer art camp volunteers who generously volunteered their time for three weeks. The party was Havanna themed which left me and...
