Location Activity

Michael Gabriel


Introduction to Mass Communication 102


Location Activity


Neville Museum


One of the location activities that our group has decided, was to go tothe Neville Museum in Green Bay http://nevillepublicmuseum.org/. The museum was very interesting seeing a lot of history that I never really thought about before. While walking around the exhibits, I noticed that mass communication was a huge part of the museum and others.

At the Neville Museum there were many things that kept my interest the entire time. The number one things that interested me was the giant stuffed Woolly Mammoth and cavemen in the beginning of the museum. This part of the museum was my favorite because it made me laugh. After I got a good laugh got a good laugh at the exhibit, I learned that this was representing the Native Americans and how they hunted. This also showed the struggle and danger it took for the native americans to get food. Going off the last statement it also kind of represented how hard it must have been to get food from time to time back then.

Another thing that peaked my interest was the the forest layout that they had in following room. They had a stuffed Bald Eagle that looked almost real. In this room the museum also had other animals such as other birds and fish. I really enjoyed this because I am an outdoors person and like seeing some animals up close and personal.

The Neville Museum and other museums are linked to mass communication because the museum opens up a gateway of learning for all people that want to enter the museum. I really enjoyed going to the museum and learning more about history.
