All About the 2005 MUSE Awards

The Media and Technology Standing Professional Committee is pleased to announce the winners of the 2005 MUSE Awards, recognizing excellence in all varieties of media programs produced by or for museums. Now in its sixteenth year, the Muse Awards competition received 138 applications from a wide variety of museums in North America, Europe, Australia, and Asia. Media formats received were closely divided into the following categories: videos, DVDs, CD-ROMs, PDA tours, Web sites, audio tours, and gallery installations. This year we are presenting 4 gold, 8 silver, 7 bronze, 11 honorable mention, and 2 special MUSE Awards among seven categories. Thirty judges—museum and media professionals from across the country—were involved in the process of selecting the winners. The 2005 MUSE Awards competition would not have achieved its goal and mission without the tremendous effort, commitment, and service of these judges.
