On The Road (both literally and metaphorically)

Today is the last day of summer internships for many of us here at the Muscarelle. Three interns and Amy (the Curator of Education and New Media) are getting ready to head to Washington, DC for the weekend. We hope to be culturally enlightened and socially stimulated while taking in the nation's capitol. So far we will be exploring the back-stage functions of The American Portrait Gallery, the Newseum, and CDG Interactive (you will meet them soon). Oh, and we will be stopping by Urban Outfitters to get some new stuff for the DEN.

Now, on to CDG! CDG is a design firm based in Washington D.C. that was commissioned to rebrand the Muscarelle around the time of its 25th anniversary. They are an extremely talented group of designers with tons of experience both in and beyond the cultural field that we occupy. So far we have an amazing new logo, beautiful business cards, letterhead, and envelopes, and many other toys to make sure that all is well for our new identity. We will be officially launching the new brand at the opening of the Dulwich show in November. There are many amazing plans being worked on to make sure everyone is aware of the new logo and I am sure you will see forms, flyers, and products roll out of the museum before November that have the new identity applied to them. In the mean time here is a sneak peak at the logo on our new shirts.
