Beyond the Compass, Beyond the Square:

Under the guidance of George Ciscle, MICA’s Curator-in-Residence, the Exhibition Development Exhibition Seminar is a hands-on learning experience for students interested in all aspects of museum Development administration, community arts, and gallery work. In addition to producing and curating this Process: exhibition of work by their peers, the students in the class serve as educators; website, graphic, and exhibition designers; and project administrators. Their goal is to explore new ways to engage artists, students, museums, galleries, and the Baltimore community. Development of exhibition programming, design, curatorial focus, and all collateral and communication materials took place in the fall 2007 semester, with teams of students planning every aspect of the exhibition and presenting their ideas to their peers in the Conversations As Muse class, as well as mentors, faculty, and representatives from MICA and the Walters Art Museum. In the spring semester, students in this two-semester class will execute all public and educational programs.
