“In the summer of 2018 the Cleveland Museum of Art greeted its first cohort of graduate fellows, who participated in a two-week seminar created as an intellectual incubator to test new ideas, methodologies, and practices for public engagement in a museum context. Participants were exposed not only to the CMA’s collections but also to a broad spectrum of cultural institutions and communities in Cleveland. The museum’s extensive network of partnerships offers these emerging scholars and artists a view into the city’s unique offerings and potential for innovative artistic and scholarly engagement with the public.”
