My childhood is inextricably linked with the local history museum, where my mother has worked for many years. I remember well how in the new museum building an entire wall was “transformed” with the help of mosaics into an exclusive painting depicting our city. And how many impressions were there from the archeology hall, which was gradually filled with interesting rare exhibits. And although journalism has become my life’s work, I believe that I have little to do with museum professions.
Personnel decides everything
Work in state (central, regional, regional, municipal) and private museums and galleries is very responsible. It requires people who have chosen the profession of museum worker to general culture, erudition, commitment, attentiveness... These specialists need to know the culture different countries and eras, be able to distinguish the original from the copy. As a rule, museum workers enter the profession after graduating from history departments at state universities and pedagogical institutes, as well as art history departments from humanities universities. But this is not a necessary condition. Some positions are successfully filled by people with specialized secondary education.
The concept of “museum worker” combines several professions:
- guardians,
- scientific staff,
- methodologists,
- tour guides,
- exhibitors,
- caretakers.
In addition, museums always have work for artists, restorers, taxidermists...
What do museum staff do?
The main purpose of the museum is to collect and store cultural heritage past. This important task is performed by custodians working in the stock departments. They are the ones who provide accounting, storage and scientific description exhibits; preparing them for introduction into scientific circulation, completing the museum collection. They are also involved in compiling an electronic database and providing advisory assistance. By the way, they don’t teach to be guardians at universities. Traditionally, people take this profession from other museum departments after they take a closer look and observe how responsible and decent a person is.
The professional interests of researchers include conducting various studies, organizing conferences and other events, publishing scientific collections, publishing articles in the media. Depending on which department they belong to, they organize thematic exhibitions and conduct excursions, keep records and control of museum attendance, and help local historians in studying the history of their native land.
Another in-demand museum profession is a tour guide. This is an interesting, creative and at the same time responsible job. In addition to the text of the excursion, you need to know a lot of different information, master the methodology for presenting it, and have the technique of public speaking. Experienced guides have good organizational skills, excellent memory and, don’t be surprised, artistry. After all, the excursion is written like a scientific report, and for visitors it is “played” like a performance. This approach helps to retain the attention of tourists, especially schoolchildren.
But without someone they won’t let you into the museum, it’s the caretakers. They work in the same rooms, where they carefully and unobtrusively keep an eye on visitors. Caretakers ensure the safety of exhibits, monitor cleanliness and ensure that the rules of conduct in the museum are followed. Typically, these positions are occupied by women of retirement age, for whom the caretaker’s modest salary is a good opportunity to earn extra money.
Museum worker- this is, first of all, love and devotion to one’s profession. My mother has been head of the fund department for over twenty years. And all these years, work has been a way of life for her. I see how she worries about her business, with what trepidation she treats the storage of exhibits, how carefully she prepares for the opening of the exhibition...
Keep up with the times
It is worth noting that museum workers are successfully mastering modern information Technology, with the advent of which the following became in demand in museums:
- programmers take part in the creation of catalogs, maintain the working state of the software, and participate in restoring system functionality in the event of equipment failure;
- work in museums that have organized their websites and pages on social networks; and are simply necessary for virtual museums that have become popular on the Internet;
- public relations specialists prepare information materials for museum websites, print and electronic media, social networks. Museums keep up with the times and organize exhibitions contemporary artists- authors of bright and unusual three-dimensional paintings, as well as interactive animated films.
Museum "secrets"
If you decide to work in a museum, you should know:
· this will be difficult for a person prone to allergies, since there is a possibility of contact with allergens (book dust);
· museums are open for visits six days a week; you will have to rest on weekdays, because there are the most visitors on Saturday and Sunday. These were the main museum professions.
By the way, experienced specialists advise all future museum workers who are just planning to enter a university to study history, study the history of religion, literature and foreign languages, and the natural sciences.

The Village continues to talk about how people of different professions plan their income and expenses. In this episode - a museum worker. According to the Ministry of Culture, the average salary of employees of cultural institutions, which include museums, in 2016 was about 59 thousand rubles in Moscow and 50 thousand in St. Petersburg. Also last year, the department published a report on the earnings of heads of state museums, according to which the General Director of the Hermitage Mikhail Piotrovsky received 839 thousand rubles monthly, and the General Director Tretyakov Gallery Zelfira Tregulova - 437 thousand rubles. A young employee of a large state museum located in St. Petersburg told us what his responsibilities are, what salary he receives and what he spends his money on.

How to get to work at the museum
I grew up in a family associated with art, and I remember being a child in a museum with my parents. I had not yet thought what specialty I would choose, but it seemed to me some kind of magic that a person looks at a painting and sees not just the plot, canvas and oil, but the context, the connections of this work with others, the history of creation and ending up in the museum, the artist’s techniques . I went to study as an art critic at the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts named after Repin. This is a very important place, where art historians, graphic artists, sculptors, and architects coexist in one building, where you can enter the workshops and watch how they work. There is no such situation as in some universities, where they also teach art history, when a student studies art history, but has never seen an artist.
A significant part of the people who work in St. Petersburg museums are graduates of the Academy of Arts. In museums, there is always a need for laboratory assistants, therefore, if a position appears, they remember those who interned, did practice and somehow proved themselves. This happened to me too. Now I am 23 years old and I have been working at the museum for four years.
Sometimes a person who wants to get a job in a museum thinks that he will do research, but not everyone understands that a museum is a huge system in which, in addition to departments related to science and art, there is a lot more - even electricians and mechanics, security service. It often happens that you have to wait for the right rate for years. For example, you are studying japanese art, because you want to work in the Oriental department, but the position has appeared in the scientific documentation department or the scientific and educational department. You have to go there and wait until, perhaps, you are invited to the desired department. Our employees are completely different. There are those who come with sparkling eyes. Some people need the status of working in a large state museum, and I even know many destinies that could have turned out better if people did not hesitate to move to other museums or organizations for fear of losing this status. But it is clear that no one comes to work in any museum in Russia because of material gain.
Features of work
The mission of a laboratory assistant in any department is to remove routine responsibilities from scientific workers so that they can do scientific work, preparation for exhibitions and conferences. I talked with colleagues from different scientific departments, and I got the impression that we do the same things, they just sometimes differ due to the specifics of the department: paintings are stored somewhere, archeology is stored somewhere. A laboratory assistant is a mixture of a secretary, courier, rigger and handyman. Often people call us on the phone to get some information about paintings, events, and I answer such calls. If employees from another department come to the department, I also accompany them. State Museum- it’s always bureaucracy, here we depend on huge amount papers, signatures, seals.
Especially a lot of paperwork appears during preparation for an exhibition, if the exhibits are not from Russian meetings, and from abroad. Drawing up memos, checking documents, collecting signatures and seals is also the job of a laboratory assistant. When colleagues come to us, for example from the Louvre or the British Museum, we need to meet them at the airport and escort them to Peterhof and Gatchina - this, again, is done by the laboratory assistant. As a courier, sometimes you need to go to the office and receive parcels and letters. Sometimes you arrive before dawn and check if everything is ready for the conference and if the projector is working. Each scientific department in the museum has a library, and for the most part girls work there. There are a lot of books, they are heavy and dusty, and laboratory assistants are always ready to help carry these books where they need to be.
In general, laboratory assistants are responsible for all movements of dusty and heavy objects - stacks of books, boxes, packages. Senior researchers, respectable masters and ladies in shawls will not do this. Laboratory assistants are mostly young people who have just graduated from higher education. educational institution or still receiving education by correspondence, they are from 20 to 30 years old. This is exactly the age when you can do this kind of work in the best possible way. If you need to get a signature very quickly in another part of the building, you can literally run there, while simultaneously remembering all the films you know where the characters ran around museums.
The next step after a laboratory assistant is the position of a junior researcher, then there is a researcher, a leading researcher, a senior researcher and a custodian. Research workers are already people who are 30–35 years old, leading and senior, respectively, even older. But these promotions come not only due to length of service, but also due to publications and other achievements. At the same time, you need to constantly develop, monitor what is happening with the area of your research throughout the world. And for this you need to constantly go to the library, visit other museums, compare things, communicate at international conferences with your colleagues.
There are employees who, somewhere after 30 years of age, decide that they are quite satisfied with the position of laboratory assistant or junior researcher, and stop developing. These are quite conservative people with whom it can be difficult for me to discuss topics of science and art. They sometimes allow themselves to express themselves in a way that is inadmissible even for the average person, for example, they can say: “Malevich is not an artist at all, my child can draw better.”
I work five days a week from 09:00 to 18:00, but for a museum employee, the work does not end with the end of the working day, but also continues in my free time. After work, I often go to exhibitions and read books on art. Museum workers have an important privilege: they have the right to free entry to museums in Russia and some other countries using a special ICOM card. This type of leisure activity on weekends is very popular among my friends: you buy the cheapest ticket for a reserved seat on a train that arrives in Moscow in the morning. From the station you run to the Tretyakov Gallery, the Pushkin Museum, the Museum of Architecture, look at exhibitions, and so on until six o’clock. In the evening you go to the gallery, which can be open until eight, then you meet with your Moscow acquaintances, also employees of museums or other cultural institutions, and then you go back on the night train.
People from St. Petersburg travel to Moscow for exhibitions much more often than vice versa. Still, Moscow is a very cool city in terms of exhibition policy. We also have many museums, but not all of them have their own programs, interesting projects. Museum practices that are used in Moscow come to us only after several years, and not always in the right form. This often happens due to St. Petersburg snobbery and the stereotype of the cultural capital.
Income
My salary is 22 thousand rubles per month. Some may think that this is not enough, but there are St. Petersburg museums where employees receive much less. Once again, every few months there is a quarterly bonus - approximately 30–40 thousand. The bonus depends on the season and museum attendance, but probably only people in the accounting department can accurately calculate it. When you receive 22 thousand, expenses often exceed this amount, and it turns out that debts accumulate, and after receiving the bonus, I return the money to everyone from whom I borrowed.
All the lab technicians I know take help from their parents in one way or another. Some are given money, others are paid for housing, others are bought clothes or brought food. Parents understand that their children cannot cope without such support. My parents took on part of my expenses - housing and mobile communications.
Expenses
On average, I spend at least 3 thousand a month on books on art history and museum practices. I go to the bookstore “Everyone is Free”, where the cool guys work. When I don't have money and I see that there is only one copy of a book left, I ask them to put it aside for me for a week or two. Sometimes it happens that this bookstore calls me and says that they have a book in stock that might be of interest to me. Then I get into another debt, buy it and switch to eating mixed vegetables for 60 rubles.
I go for free not only to museums, but also to national film weeks at Rodina or Giant Park. I try to maintain the level of knowledge foreign languages to communicate with colleagues from other countries, and for this I watch films without translation. There are several cinemas in St. Petersburg that show films in the original language with subtitles, but I don’t go to daytime screenings because of work, and a ticket to an evening screening costs comparable to the price of a not-so-expensive book on art history or curating. Sometimes I invite my friends to join me in watching a movie that they somehow downloaded in advance, because I don’t have the Internet at home. I'm not afraid that with the Internet I'll plunge into the abyss of procrastination, I'm absolutely sure of that. The books I buy will end up growing into a huge pile and collecting dust. And so I protected myself from the temptation to go online, read an article on Colta, then another, then go to Art Guide and, in addition, watch a couple of documentaries in the evening.
I spend about 3 thousand a month on transport. On average, it also costs about a couple of thousand for clothes. I don't buy it every month, but usually wait until Uniqlo has a sale and pick up a few basic items there. This way I will have peace of mind for three or four months, because I have simple clothes that can withstand the dust and dirt that part of the museum work entails. After all, there is such a law: when you buy yourself a new white shirt and come to work in it, it is on this day that you will need to drag dusty archive folders.
I spend about 8-10 thousand a month on food. Lunch is a very interesting part of my working day. My friends and I have this theory: it’s when you start taking food from home in a container that you stop being young. In addition, the museum is a rather dusty place, so it’s a good idea to get out of it for at least an hour during the working day to get some fresh air and stretch your legs. Since a significant part of the museums are located in the center, you can catch some exhibition at lunchtime, and then just grab shawarma or falafel on the go. Sometimes we visit new places that open not far from the museum, evaluate the development of gastronomy - this is also interesting and deserves attention. We have a canteen in the museum, but they cook there from ingredients that not everyone eats for one reason or another, so we don’t eat there.
Since I live in St. Petersburg, I have constant expenses for alcohol. I don't drink a bottle of wine every night, but on average it costs a couple thousand a month. Recently, the Chronicle bar celebrated its birthday, and at least a thousand were definitely left there.
When they give out a bonus and some additional money appears, I, as a rule, pay off the debts. I can also go to an exhibition in Moscow or another city where I have friends who are ready to provide accommodation for the night.

Who works daily at the Yeltsin Center? The author of Vypusknik.pro talked with museum worker Alexandra Lopata and found out what is most important in this profession.
I have many educations. The first is construction, at a technical school. Then I simultaneously graduated from the Faculty of Cultural Studies and Art History at UrFU and received a diploma in the specialty “Creative Industries and Management in the Field of Culture” at RUDN University. Then - master's degree in audiovisual communications.
As a child, I dreamed of becoming an archaeologist. Then I wanted to become an actress. I even entered the theater institute, but they didn’t accept me.
After that, I decided: if I was not destined to be an actress, then I would study art. I did a lot of volunteering in museums. As soon as I graduated from college, one of my teachers invited me to work in a museum.Fate itself brought me to the museum. Two years passed and I was hooked. This is very interesting.
I think this profession suits me. I like to gain new knowledge, I am interested in history. I like old things, everything that has been lived in. Anything that has a touch of antiquity has its own charm. The museum profession itself found me.
Any job has pros and cons. Every day I learn a lot of information and communicate with people. A museum is a space for communication and dialogue. I work in an interesting creative team and learn from my colleagues. I have space for creativity, here I can invent and implement. Probably, if I worked at a factory, I would die of boredom. A museum worker is a guide in art.
I can’t directly name the cons, I love my job too much.
Yes, you get tired at the end of the day, but where are you not tired? We have a very stressful job. We work every day from morning until evening. But no one forces anyone, everyone stays on their own, of their own free will.
We have a very large excursion load: there are often groups of 30 people, including many children. Sometimes negative people come. It takes a lot of energy and at the end of the day you are simply exhausted.
Every day of work brings satisfaction, you know that you have done something useful.
I would like to develop. A museum is a space that can be endlessly developed. Every day learn something new, invent, update, promote. That is, it is something inexhaustible.
I don’t know how my life will turn out, but for now I don’t plan to leave the museum. If fate sees fit to take me to another place, I will go there. One way or another, it must be related to culture, science and communication with people.
The museum is actually very interesting. We have few employees and we are short of people, there is a job for everyone. Everyone goes to economists, lawyers, engineers. Few people study to become art historians. And then many of them come there to sit somewhere for four years.When I got to the museum, I realized that there was a lot of work and not enough people.
Now museums are experiencing some kind of second life: if you compare them now and in 2000, these are completely different things.
I've seen a lot different people who came straight after university. I will say this: a person who is interested in life, wants self-realization and development, will be interested everywhere. Including in the museum.
The museum is so huge that it seems to me that a lifetime would not be enough to explore everything. I saw people who came, despite modest working conditions, despite the lack of understanding of senior employees for bias... They took and followed their line. We studied and did interesting projects.
Working in a museum requires dedication; Altruism is important. You have to be prepared for the fact that you may not be noticed, your ideas may be ignored, that you need to work hard. You need to defend, you need to learn to be loyal, flexible and ready for anything.
Be prepared that you will work hard; you must always raise your intellectual level. You need to constantly monitor what is happening in the field. Have a backbone and don’t believe those people who say that no one needs museums today.

PROGRESS OF THE CLASS
I . Setting a goal and determining the topic of the lesson
Leading: Today we will go on a journey through amazing world museums. Our lesson is called “Keepers of History”. (Slide 1)
And to find out who they are, let's take a look at this museum. (Slide 2)
IN: - But we will not enter through the main entrance! Today we need.. this door! (slide 2)
What does this inscription mean? Who is this entrance for? (children's answers )
Can you guess what the topic and purpose of today's lesson will be? (children's answers )
Today you will meet people who work in museums. (Slide 3) Find out what they do, what their responsibilities are. We will also discuss what qualities people in these professions should have.
II . Work on the topic of the lesson
IN: We will conduct the lesson in the form of a game. Let's divide into four groups. Each group will act as museum employees.
And one very nice character will help us with this.
Let's imagine this situation. (Slide 4) A little girl came to one of the museums and brought a gift. (slide and display box )
Can a toy become a museum exhibit? (children's answers ) Let's see what's in the box? (discussion of the Olympic Bear toy )
Leading: - Let's find out what happens to an object when it becomes a museum exhibit.
1. The first employee whose work we will get acquainted with is...
Student: … GUARDIAN OF MUSEUM COLLECTIONS Slide 5
U: There are chief curators in all museums. Our main responsibility is to work with museum objects and be responsible for their good fate. We accept all items received by the museum. The curator must determine the value of the new item and enter it into a specific museum collection. We are constantly monitoring safety of exhibits, we monitor their condition. Also, the museum curator draws up plans for exhibitions and writes reports on the work of the museum.
IN: - When receiving a gift of historical and cultural objects, the custodian of museum funds draws up a special document calledacceptance certificate .(Slide 6) It is compiled in two copies: one will remain in the museum, the other - with the donor. A representative from the Museum Keepers group will complete this document. (on sheet A3 )
IN: - Simultaneously with the receipt of the item, the museum curator makesentry in the General Inventory Book. (Slide 7) This is the most important document for recording and protecting all museum exhibits. (show the museum inventory book )
Let's try to make a record like this (One student from the “Museum Keepers” group takes notes on an A3 sheet )
After an item is assigned an accounting number in the book, it is applied to the exhibit itself. How should it be placed? (children's answers )
That's right, the inscription is made like this:so as not to spoil appearance subject. (keepers put the number with a marker )
The museum curator asks the donor for information about the item. Such information is called"legends"
This is how the legend for our Mishka could have been compiled (Slide 8)
Student: The curators of the museum fund have another important task: to bring a new exhibit into the card index museum (Slide 9) Each card contains all the information about the item, its legend, sometimes even a photograph.
U: - What do you think the file cabinet is for? (children's answers) The cards are arranged in alphabetical order and allow you to quickly find information about any exhibit.
IN: So, Mishka became one of the exhibits of the museum. The group of curators of the museum fund successfully coped with their responsibilities. Let's think about what qualities a person in this profession should have? (children's answers )
deep knowledge of history, art history,
responsibility;
accuracy and precision in work;
good memory.
Leading: - Let's continue getting acquainted with the museum staff. The curators of the museum fund wrote in the Inventory Book that our Mishka is in complete safety. But this is not always the case. Look at this toy (show ) How many of you guessed what profession we are about to meet?
2. RESTORER Slide 10
Student: Restorer – specialist in the preservation and restoration of museum objects. The restorer’s task is not just to update the object, but to preserve its features; the spirit of the time in which he appeared.
Each subject requires a special approach. Therefore, before starting work, the restorer consults with historians, archaeologists, chemists and other experts. Sometimes restorers have to restore heavily damaged exhibits. But, thanks to the painstaking work of these masters, a real miracle happens! (Slides 11,12)
Leading: - We recently attended an exhibition in the Kremlin. Remember how we looked at the ancient royal towel. There were many small holes on it.. But why didn’t the restorers restore it? (approximate answer: a royal towel darned or patched would look ridiculous... The restorers only strengthened the fabric from the inside out so that the damage would not increase and would be less noticeable!)
Dear restorers, take a look at the Bear. Please outline the progress of restoration work. (Children's answers )
What qualities should a restorer have? (children's answers )
Trembling, careful attitude to museum objects,
A penchant for manual labor
Interest in visual and applied arts,
Perseverance, accuracy,
Ability to concentrate.
IN: We thank our restorers for good job! And Mishka falls into the capable hands of the next specialist.
3. (Slide 13)EXHIBITOR
IN: –Try to guess what people in this profession do? (children's answers )
Thismuseum researcher participating in the creation of the exhibition. Museum exhibition– a group of objects related by a single content. (Slide 14)
Can we say that this slide shows a museum exhibition? Why? (children's answers )
In the exhibition, all the objects seem to “help” each other: they emphasize the features of each of them, complement the information contained in them.
He will tell you in more detail about the work of exhibitors... (student’s name).
(According to slide 15)
Student: - Place objects can be used in different ways. Can create some kind of story (show on a slide) or place museum objects in a clear system (show on a slide)
Labels are placed near each exhibit (display). The label indicates the name of the item, information about the material from which it is made, and the time in which it was created. There may be explanatory text nearby. It contains more detailed information about this subject.
IN: - Tell me, please, should there be bright light in the museum so that everything can be seen?
U: No, most often the light in the halls of the museum is dim and dim.
IN: How to view the exhibits?
U: With the help of backlight! (Slide 16)Directional light highlights individual objects very well and allows you to see all the details.
IN: Now we will ask a group of exhibitors to design a museum window. You can use not only the Bear, but also other exhibits. Don't forget the main rule:
they must be connected by some common content! (Creative work of a group of children: from a set of toys, souvenirs and labels, students select objects with Olympic symbols and create a museum exhibition )
Leading: - Creating a museum exhibition is a long process, requiring painstaking creative work. What depends on the competent work of the exhibitor? (children's answers )
Name the qualities that are important for this specialist (answers)
artistic taste,
Attentiveness, accuracy
So, the exposition is ready. The bear has taken its rightful place in our museum. And now we will see the work of another employee. Can you guess who we're talking about? (children's answers )
Tells about the profession...(student's name)
4 . GUIDE (Slide 17)
U: The guide conducts a tour of the museum and accompanies the inspection of the exhibits with stories and explanations. The guide himself picks up and studies historical materials And cooks excursion text on a specific topic.
The guides can tell you a fascinating story about each museum exhibit and answer many additional questions. The more a specialist knows, the more interesting his story will be. The guide must be an artistic person and must be able to speak in front of an audience.
Q: Let's try to add to the list of qualities necessary for people in this profession. (children's answers )
Good memory
Interest in new knowledge,

III. Summing up the lesson. Reflection of activity.
Q: I suggest you take a short “Find out a profession” test. Before you are photographs. Each group must find out “their” profession and raise a card with this number.
Slide 19 ( distribute signal cards to the tables )
(IN The groups discuss the slide for a minute, then, at the teacher’s signal, they raise the cards. Checking answers. )
IN: - Our game has come to an end. Let's remember what our lesson was called. (Keepers of History) Slide 20 Who can be called that? Why? (children's answers )
All museum employees can be called guardians of history. They study and preserve ancient, unique objects; exhibit them, tell people about them. Behind each exhibit is the work of many museum workers.
And let us conclude with words of gratitude to all the Keepers of History!
Students:
History doesn't like fuss.
She will only smile from above,
When on yellowed pages
Let's see in years and centuries.
Talk leisurely with her,
Keep the breath of ancient times
You, museum workers, are capable.
And we are grateful to you for this!
