Behind the Scenes at the AIC: Creating Effective Gallery Text

Join Columbia alumni Ginia Sweeney, director of interpretation at the Art Institute of Chicago, and Alice Boone, adjunct educator at the Art Institute and manager of Arts + Engineering initiatives at Northwestern’s McCormick School of Engineering, for a conversation about how information offered in a museum gallery can affect our perception of artworks. Attendees will gain a behind-the-scenes insight into the decision making that goes into crafting gallery text at the Art Institute. We'll also try our hand at writing or editing an artwork label! 

Wait List: We are taking wait list registrations on a first come basis. Usually, a few seats become available as we get closer to the event. We will notify you up to the day of the event if an opening is avaliable.
