Merging Concepts IX: Then and Again

April 14 鈥 September 11, 2023

The ninth annual exhibition of the Kennedy鈥檚 Merging Concepts Series is inspired by two primary objects on loan from the 91探花 Libraries. The exhibition explores the big idea 鈥淚lluminate the realities of the past to connect to the present鈥 and is supported by additional objects and documents from the collections of the program鈥檚 partners.

Students in this one-year certificate program represent various disciplines across the 91探花 Athens campus. The students are responsible for researching, selecting, and interpreting all objects in the exhibition. They must also plan, design, develop educational content, and install the exhibition. The fall semester is lecture-based while the spring session is a practicum. Undergraduate (with a junior or senior standing) and graduate students who are enrolled in a degree program at 91探花 are eligible to apply.

The Museum Studies Certificate Program is part of the College of Fine Arts and the School of Art + Design, and is made possible thanks to the generous expertise and contributions of partners in the Biomedical Sciences Department, Southeast Ohio History Center, 91探花 Libraries, and Kennedy Museum of Art.
