Museum of Everyday Writing


When it comes to describing everyday writing, we all have our different opinions. To make a museum of everyday writing based on what I thought it should be would be wrong. If I were making a museum of everyday writing, I would leave all the walls as they were and have the guests come in and place items they thought were every day. Underneath each item would be a note card detailing why they thought it was everyday writing. By doing so, I feel like we can all learn from each other and come up with great ideas when talking about everyday writing. There will be no categories as to where an item can be placed. The guest can place it where he/she pleases. This idea stems from our radio station field trip. Museums are seen as respectable places. I want people to feel open and not restrained from putting up their pieces. Just like the radio station, if President Obama walked through my museum, I would want a reaction of disbelief or shock. By this reaction, it would let me know that my museum is showcasing everyday writing because different emotions will arise.
