Hands-On Curatorial Program

The Coe Center Hands-On Curatorial Program provided high school students with a unique opportunity to engage directly with the Coe Collection—over 2,500 Indigenous artworks spanning history and the globe. Through museum visits, interactions with artists and art professionals, and weekly sessions, the young curators developed both individual and collaborative skills, gaining the expertise to create their own exhibition from inception to completion. The skills they acquired were not just for the moment but lasted a lifetime.
