Hi, curious people. Thanks for joining me for another CURIOUS PEOPLE WANTED episode, a program series by the Barnum Museum in Bridgeport, Connecticut. My name is Adrienne Saint-Pierre, and I'm the curator here at the Barnum, which means I get to work with lots of significant artifacts and share their stories with you in my curator's corner. The lifesize statue was erected before Tom Thumb's passing on July 15, 1883. In 1959 vandals smashed the statue. It was restored by the Barnum Festival Society and Mountain Grove Cemetery Association with public subscription funds. Today for our virtual exhibition we hear the story of the statue's lost head and how it came to the Barnum Museum! If you continued reading…my guess is that you are indeed a ‘curious person’! GREAT! And, welcome! Today, the Barnum Museum is launching a new YouTube program - you guessed it – Curious People Wanted! Museums worldwide are filled with extraordinary objects - relics of the past that hold mysteries of bygone days and stories of their ghosts. Hundreds of millions of artifacts fill the storage rooms of innumerable grand institutions and small historic sites. All of these treasures are carefully stewarded by curators and archivists who diligently battle the elements of nature and time to protect and preserve the artifacts’ fragile existence for future generations to be awed and inspired. There are far too many objects to display for most of these organizations, and only a handful of artifacts are typically ever on exhibit. However, if our challenging year has done nothing, it has provided Museums all over the world the opportunity to find new and innovative ways to share their collections and give our global community a chance to peer into storage rooms and see some of the rare, fantastical and wondrous curiosities that fill their shelves. The Barnum Museum is no exception. Containing over 60,000 artifacts and documents, there is so much to share! Guided by Barnum Museum Curator Adrienne Saint-Pierre, Curious People Wanted! will take you on a journey behind the scenes and give you a glimpse of the many hidden treasures safely kept for your edification and enjoyment! So sit back in the comfort of your own place, click on the Barnum Museum’s growing YouTube Channel and explore the many stories, amusements, and wonders of the Barnum Museum in Bridgeport Connecticut!
