John Ivar Thun
Craftsman and operations technician

25 years at Drammens Museum has given me good insight into the building stock and not least the challenges. As the only craftsman at the museum, it can often be experienced as lonely and overwhelming. On the other hand, varied tasks give me contact with a variety of professions and inspiration from interested and dedicated, not least to the museum's friends' associations.

My job is to make sure that objects we are responsible for are safe in the magazines and in the exhibitions, and registration and cataloging of these.

Lasse Hermansen Bjørnland
Museum educator, bays

My work mainly consists of planning and implementing various programs at the museum. Most programs are part of DKS, but as a museum educator you also have programs other than dissemination to children and young people. We constantly have different associations and private individuals who want dissemination in the various exhibitions, or the magnificent farms that the museum manages. It is the museum educators who plan and carry out these disseminations.
