Museum Practicum
This semester-long extended format course combines theoretical and museological study with the execution of a project within the Fine Arts Center museum. The course provides opportunities to engage with objects, examine scholarship, develop interpretative strategies for broad audiences, and design mechanisms for inclusive knowledge production. In addition to class meetings and discussions, students will engage with the production of a public exhibition, program, or project focused on the FAC collection. The course will engage students in deep collaboration with FAC staff as well as other CC classes and community members. The course includes weekly meetings in addition to independent research, collaborations, and project work.
Prerequisite: General Studies 247 or other Museum Studies course; or Consent of Instructor.
