This one-day course provides a behind-the-scenes forum for students to listen to and meet with arts industry professionals including curators, registrars, conservators and marketing professionals.
Participants will gain an insight into curating and presenting an exhibition, the methods and considerations involved in the conservation and preservation of artworks, as well as the exhibition design and marketing. Students will also take part in a hands-on workshop mounting their own artwork to internationally recognised archival standards. This is also a rare opportunity for students to access museum areas that are usually restricted to the general public.
Cost Student $75 (includes exhibition entry, education kit and workshop materials)
