April 10, 2013

Today was a change of scenery, both literally and in my work. Delilah and I went over to a coffee truck called Patika and talked more about the creative aspect of her job. She encouraged me to take studio art classes to become more familiarized with different forms of art. We also talked about the difference between being teachers and art educators and how the two are linked in many ways. I'm glad that I'm able to have these sorts of conversations with my supervisors. They're always so supportive!

Back at the office, Emily sent me a list of corporate sponsors that she put together for the annual day of the dead celebration the museum has called Viva La Vida Festival. I remembered that early on in my internship they were compiling this list and literally calling a dozen company's a day trying to get sponsorship. She had me cross-reference this list with another sponsorship list for the museum's Gala held in May. The Gala was being organized by the director, Sylvia, so she did not want any overlap in sponsors. I got through most of the list before handing it off to Emily and heading home.
