Cultural Offer in Schöngeising: Farm Museum Currently Without Leadership

The Jexhof Museum in Schöngeising is without a director due to illness, but upcoming programs and events will still proceed as planned.

The Jexhof Museum in Schöngeising, Germany, is currently facing a leadership void as its director, Hannah Maischein, has been on sick leave since early January. Ines Roellecke, spokesperson for the district office, reassured that the museum's programs are being developed with the existing Jexhof team, ensuring continuity in the offerings. All planned events are listed on the museum's website, with a new spring program expected to be unveiled in March.

Despite the absence of a director, operational plans remain intact, with Roellecke emphasizing that the seasonal exhibit that typically launches the Jexhof’s season will be presented to the public as scheduled in March. However, the museum's website still features last year's exhibitions, indicating a delay in updates due to Maischein's absence. The district authority is taking steps to ensure that the museum operations do not suffer as a result of this temporary leadership gap.

Additionally, the museum is gearing up for necessary construction work that will affect its programming. There are plans for an upgrade to the storeroom, which is experiencing structural issues. Roellecke highlighted the need for flexibility in scheduling as the museum prepares for these renovations, ensuring that the integrity of the cultural programs is maintained while addressing the building's needs. This proactive approach demonstrates the commitment of the district office to preserve the museum's vitality during this transitional period.
