IVDM on the News

Roy Dorantes films volunteers curating 

Today KECY news reporter Roy Dorantes came out from Yuma to film a story about the Imperial Valley Desert Museum.  He asked questions about what we do here at the museum, what some of the highlights of the museum are, and our mission to bring the museum out of the walls of the building and encourage people to explore and connect with the desert. 

SDSU student Edgar Bernal-Sevilla was in the museum today doing research on the Morlin Childers collection and spoke to Dorantes.  "It's a great place to be, and has had a huge impact on my education. It's a rare opportunity to do research." Edgar said.
