The BCMA is now accepting applications for faculty-curated exhibitions that will take place during the 2024–2025 academic year. This is a wonderful opportunity to showcase your scholarship for both campus audiences and the general public. Proposed projects can also be integrated into an upcoming course—Museum staff can work with you to scaffold the project into a new or existing syllabus so that students can hone their research, critical thinking, and writing skills.
Applications
For this round of applications, we are especially eager to review proposals that align with some of the broad themes that will be explored in our galleries during the Fall and Spring semesters, including:
- Art as a form of empathy, dignity, and/or resistance
- Artistic responses to catastrophe, conflict, and systemic oppression
- Connections between mass media, tragedy, spectacle, and dehumanization
Please be assured that we will still give full consideration to proposals that explore topics outside of these themes.
- Learn more about the proposal process
- Review of applications will begin on Friday, April 19. Access the online application
Please feel free to reach out to Casey Braun at [email protected] if you have questions or would like to brainstorm potential projects before submitting a proposal.
We look forward to learning about your ideas!
Cheers,
Casey
