Through readings, observations, writing and discussion, students consider issues such as education as a marketing tool; modes of presentation and display as communicators of educational goals; audience diversification; outreach and community involvement; and the critical relationship of individual artists to the museums that represent them. This course develops educational materials and approaches for exhibitions and events at selected institutions.
