How are museums keeping busy during shelter in place?

Museums may not be getting visitors right now, but that doesn’t mean that the curators don’t still have things to do. As exemplified by a recent challenge on Twitter, they’re finding plenty of entertaining ways to keep themselves busy.

This week it’s with a "creepiest exhibit" challenge, which is exactly what it sounds like. The Yorkshire Museum in the United Kingdom took to Twitter on April 17 to encourage museums around the world to share the creepiest object in their collections. Museums from all over the world have shared images in response, and we’re all going to have nightmares now.

The Yorkshire Museum has held a few of these #CuratorBattles, announcing a new challenge every Friday. The creepiest object, however, seems to be their most popular so far.

“It is great for us and other museums to be able to still share our collections with the public when our doors are closed,” Millicent Carroll, of York Museums Trust, told The Guardian.
