Our Team
Fantastic work isn’t complicated, it just takes support. Small museums and nonprofits are constantly asked to do more with less – so how can we help you?
The team at MuseumTastic is always on the lookout for partners to join our work. Partners aren’t “staff.” They are true collaborators with our founder and clients and help to provide high-quality work using their diverse skillsets. Use the contact form if you are interested in learning more.
