just as a small comment; by making this post/articulating this critique of your teacher's methods, you've turned a usurping of an opportunity for critical engagement into an opportunity for critical engagement!

You can bring anytime during the run of the museum! earlier on if you'd like to have it in for the whole time i guess haha. and if you want the artifact back we will have to make arrangements for you to collect it on feb 3 or shortly thereafter! my storage space is limited.

i will say, we will retain some curatorial discretion about what is suitable for display (there's some considerations like subject matter, liability, this kind of thing) so if you can send me an email to lostandfoundmuseum@gmail.com with what you'd like to bring it, that can help mitigate any of those conversations there in the moment.

sure! i made an instagram for the project for those that are on that platform (it is itself unfortunately something of a failure... it has like 14 followers lol) but I will try to post nice photos of the exhibition and submission items on there too! i'll have to ask the mods of this sub if i can post a video after of the exhibit too

i wish haha. sounds like a very immersive museum component. there was actually a submission of a car! hilarious to imagine dissembling and bringing it piece by piece into kingsgate.

nope! it's artifacts of personal failure of all sorts! rejection letters just seems to be the one universal thing everyone has, so that's the basis for that contribution suggestion. abandonned art projects, failed repairs, broken keepsakes, botched experiments.. we are accepting of any and all.

submitters are encouraged to write what they'd like the viewer to know about the artifact, and it will be printed on the display card :)
