Her first museum

AUBURN - As Lauren Chyle settles into her new role as curator of the Cayuga Museum of History and Art, she sees the museum's potential to become more engaging and interactive.

“There's always the lofty dreams of touch screen and all that fancy stuff, but there are always limitations, especially with a small museum,” she said. “It could be as simple as getting a scanner so we can do more things with photographs or as big as getting the big computers.”

Being fresh out of school, having just finished a master's degree in museum studies and another in art history, she knows about all the latest technologies museums use in exhibits. Her goal is to make the exhibits engage the audience more which could mean incorporating sound and video into the displays.
