Behind the Scenes

Few visitors familiar with the galleries of a modern museum realize the amount and scope of work involved before an exhibit is ready for the public. In addition to the expert knowledge, the amount of manual labor is considerable.
In our “Behind the Scenes” series, you’ll get a peek at how The Ste. Genevieve Museum Learning Center collects, conserves, and displays artifacts, in some cases thousands of years old, from across the globe.
We’ll also bring you the “back stories” of people and events connected to the museum. You’ll discover the sometimes rarely seen people who make the museum what it is.
