Built in 1968, Flag Plaza, located downtown across from PPG Paints Arena, has been overlooking downtown Pittsburgh. Inside this building is a vast collection of Americana and Regional History that the current owners, the BSA, don’t know. My job, as the sole intern, was to take on the task of archiving these items and creating a catalog that would, most importantly, be a way of knowing just what they have.
My Spring 2024 internship at the Carnegie Museum of Natural History was led by Gretchen Anderson, Head of Conservation, and began in the stages of assembling an exhibition.
