Exhibitsmith the podcast rethinks how and why we save our stuff. With a background working with museum collections and archives, Lindsey loves to help people interpret, preserve, and better understand, well, stuff. She believes that artifact and heirloom preservation is both easy and fun, so sit back, relax, and listen to professional thoughts, personal musings, and the exciting - and sometimes ridiculous - stories that that she’s encountered while working with all that stuff.
