Abstract
This paper summarizes the process by which I created a podcast that examines institutional siloing in universities and nonprofit cultural organizations and suggests methods for how collaborative work could happen in these settings. The podcast draws on three case studies from three different institutions to examine how collaboration does and does not happen. I also examine how universities, as a place of higher learning and training, can function in a way that restricts interdisciplinary work from occurring. This is focused on exhibition creation but can be applied to other projects as well. One of the greatest challenges to collaborative work is the flow of money through cultural organizations, which I explore through a consideration of granting organizations and institutional budgets. Included with this is a poster that serves as a checklist for project teams. This project is an advocation for collaborative practices and a reflection on the organizations in which we operate and how and why we must do more to maintain interdisciplinary work in the field of public humanities.
