Managing a museum involves the job of curating, which is the process of organizing and maintaining collections of artwork or artifacts. This includes selecting items for display, researching their history, and ensuring that they are properly cared for and preserved. It also involves overseeing the day-to-day operations of the museum, such as managing staff, budgeting, and marketing. The curator must also be knowledgeable about the museum's collections and be able to communicate effectively with visitors.
