Museum: Behind the Scenes at the Metropolitan Museum of Art

Stories from the people who work at the Met

Museum: Behind the Scenes

I'm thoroughly enjoying Museum: Behind the Scenes! It’s individual "self-portraits" of people who work there: curators, a janitor, a waitress, the head of security, the plumbing supervisor, a trustee, and more. Find out about all the pieces of one of the greatest museums in the world and how they acquire, preserve, and display the art, and manage all of the visitors. I did my internship at the Met so the first person I looked up was my supervisor and there she was! So fun!
