Global Collection Curation : Strategy, Managemet and Public Engagement. An Online Intensive Program for Emerging Curators and Art Professionals

A core path for a curator’s career lies within museums, public institutions, foundations, or private collections. In each setting, the permanent collection—its stewardship, interpretation, and growth—is paramount. This intensive online program equips participants with the practical and theoretical frameworks to excel in this field. We move from analyzing a collection’s historical and conceptual foundations to developing innovative curatorial strategies that activate its legacy for today's audiences, fostering both critical discourse and public engagement.
