Drawing on real-world projects from museums and cultural institutions, participants will learn how to translate research, historical evidence, and interpretive goals into a practical scent brief that can guide creative development.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThrough case studies, discussion, and hands-on exercises, participants will work through the same questions faced by museum professionals, researchers, and creative practitioners: What is being interpreted?
