Brosseau Center for Learning: The Object Feels

Spencer Museum of Art Interns 2016–2017, curator

Gallery 318, The Jack and Lavon Brosseau Center for Learning, Spencer Museum of Art, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas

In 2017, the Spencer’s graduate student interns collaborated to create an exhibition for the Jack & Lavon Brosseau Center for Learning. The Object Feels paired original works of art from the Spencer’s collection with tactile replicas to explore the value of multi-sensory encounters with art for multiple and diverse audiences.
