<p class="MsoNormal">Tammy – I think there are probably several similar projects, but we did one to celebrate the centenary of UBC: 100 Years, 100 Treasures.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our curators selected 100 (because of 100 years) treasures from our collections and members of the community were invited to choose one that spoke to them and write about it. These were compiled into a website
<a href="https://beatytreasures.com/">https://beatytreasures.com/</a> What was wonderful was the diversity of styles of engagement: many people wrote short prose pieces, some deeply personal and some more object-centred, but we also had poetry, a tattoo and
even an original song composition and performance! The public were then asked to vote on their favourite treasures and the top treasures were displayed in an in-museum exhibition.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
