We have had the pleasure of visiting the Medalta Museum in Medicine Hat several times and today's blog is compilation some photos of the visits. On one of the visits we had a guided tour and recorded some of the conversation and stories, we look forward to doing it again soon.
I think most collectors have a mentor or someone they look to for some guidance and answers to questions when they are unable to find an answer anywhere else. I like to think that over the years of collecting that these people have gone on to be our friends and we get together and share stories and laughter.
We have discovered things like virtual antiques shows and found hundreds of online auctions with new ones showing up every day. I am sure the world of actually attending a live auction will be a thing of the past and everything will become electronic.
We have used Facetime to stay in contact with family and the telephone is used for voice calls now more often that before.
The blog photos today are taken in Medicine Hat at the museum. I am also including a link to a Facebook group that is having virtual antiques shows every couple of weeks and has been quite successful. https://www.facebook.com/groups/942676159137439/
And the link to the Medalta Museum in Medicine Hat, be sure to check out the online data base of the collection they on the page. https://medalta.org/visit/museum/ https://medalta.pastperfectonline.com/
We are looking forward to the world returning some semblance of normal but until then we will scour the virtual world looking for new pieces to add to our collections.
Until next time......The Search Continues...
