Importantly, Oma Will Benchmark the Museums Standing of Humanities Interpretation and Storytelling. Oma's Contract Interpretive/museum Specialist Will Visit Each Museum to Learn How They Can Strengthen and Broaden Their Interpretive Narratives, Improve Interpretive Excellence, Engage Their Communities, and Expand Their Public Audiences. the Report Generated From the Site Visits Will Strengthen Oma as It Designs and Implements Its Future Professional Development Training, Specifically in Response to the Information Gained From the Museums.
