SUMMARY:Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum & Aquarium 2024 Season Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:Paul CallomonCollection Manager\, Academy of Natural Sciences\, Drexel University\n \n\n\nPrecious Luster: On Pearls and Value \n​In this wide-ranging and entertaining talk\, Paul Callomon explores the concept of value through one of its best-known historical emblems – pearls. Starting with their genesis within the shells of living oysters\, we see how this one-time natural rarity and talisman of royal status was transformed into a mass-produced product that nevertheless retains its preciousness. \nPaul Callomon is Collections Manager in Malacology and General Invertebrates at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University in Philadelphia. Though originally a designer\, his lifelong engagement with shells led him further into collecting\, research\, and publishing about them during a prolonged stay in Japan. His interests today focus on the social history of natural science\, both in the West and in Japan\, and on the museum as a metropolitan and cosmopolitan forum. He has advanced degrees in Museum Leadership and Science\, Technology and Society. \nRegistration is required; includes choice of wine\, beer\, non-alcoholic beverage\, and light snack.\n\nPurchase Deadline: Wednesday\, 4/10/2024 12:00 PM
