Hosted by Dr. Jennifer Rogers, founder of Kaleidoscope Heritage Focus, and a hard-of-hearing speaker with a speech impediment. In each episode, she explores real challenges facing small museums and shares practical solutions, creative strategies, and stories from the field that prove small museums have advantages of their own.

Each volume of Small Museum Advantage explores a challenge facing small museums. First, we examine the problem through real-world stories (Side A). Then we explore practical solutions, lessons learned, and strategies that museums can adapt to their own circumstances (Side B).
