Greenberg Curatorial Study

1-3 units

The Arthur Greenberg program offers undergraduate students the experience of curating an exhibition. A small team of two or three is selected through a competitive application process the year before enrollment in the course. Under the supervision of a faculty mentor in the Art History & Archaeology Department and a curator in the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum, students plan and curate an exhibition for the museum's Teaching Gallery. They also research and write a short brochure, prepare educational materials, and offer related programs for the exhibition, which usually opens in April. The fall 3-unit course fulfills a departmental capstone requirement for the major; 1 unit of additional course work is completed in the spring.
