The exhibition, KIDS AS CURATORS, will open in the Experiencenter May 10, 2008. This exhibition is a collaborative effort between students from three Dayton area schools and the museum. Focusing on Ohio art and artists, the students will select 10-12 works from the museum's collection to be used in the exhibition and respond to the works of art through both written and visual interpretations. These original works by the young curators will be displayed as part of the exhibition. The Yeck Visiting Artist will create an installation that would incorporate the artist's personal response to the artworks from the museum’s collection selected for the exhibition by the students.
