Capturing the Moments

Backstage at RaiseItUp! with some staff members Auni worked most close with. From right: intern at NMAH Auni Gelles, supervisor in New Media Erin Blasco, researcher Patri O’ Gan, and educator Tory Altman.

Auni Gelles, a graduate student at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) and is currently interning with the National Museum of American History (NMAH) New Media Department.

Since starting her internship this summer Auni has been involved in a range of exciting projects and events, which she describes in a post on the UMBC Department of History Blog here.

Most recently Auni took part in the RaiseItUp! Anthem for America War of 1812 Bicentennial Commemoration which she writes about on the NMAH “O Say Can You See?” Blog here.
