If you missed our live, hands-on workshop with museum collection specialist Amy Cao—or you want to revisit the process at your own pace—you can now get on-demand access to the full recording of Build Your Own Slant Mount: Step-by-Step Instructions for Creating a Mount for Display with Museum Collections Specialist, Amy Cao!

This is not another slide-based webinar. Instead, you get three synchronized views of the workspace—front, side, and top—so you can clearly see every cut, fold, and join as Amy works. Once you have the recording, you can:
- Watch the full process without pressure.
- Pause, rewind and replay each step as you construct your own mounts.
- Refer back any time you're planning or refreshing an exhibit.
The recording also includes Q&A moments where Amy talks through customization, accessibility, and how she uses this mount system to create cost‑effective, low‑waste, in‑house exhibit solutions.
