>In this fast-changing world of Internet technology it is difficult to
>keep yourself and your staff up to date on the latest tools,

>development and Internet delivery. Offered this summer in a
>residential setting, the Grindstone Island Summer Seminars will give
>you and your staff the skills you need to create content and develop
>on-line and in-gallery programs that use the best of museum
>multimedia strategies.
>
>All seminars are small-group, hands-on experiences. Participants will
>learn practical skills as well as theoretical approaches.
>
>Topics to be covered include:
