Megan Lallier-Barron

Currently I am a graduate student at the University of Oregon, pursuing a master’s degree in Arts & Administration. Before moving to Oregon, I lived in New York where I received my Bachelors of Arts in Archaeology and Art History from the State University of New York, College at Potsdam. After several years working as an archaeologist, I decided to pursue my goal of being a museum professional. I believe museums have the unique ability to foster independent learning and civic engagement. I feel it should be the goal for all museums and arts organizations to create environments that actively engage the visitor in meaningful experiences.
