The Hood Museum of Art is here to support your spring term remote course. You can work with
us to:
- Select images from the museum’s collection to supplement your course material
- Have a museum staff member speak with your class in their area(s) of expertise (see list below)
- Develop activities to learn and practice close looking, analytical skills, and more
- Create online exhibition projects and discuss principles of strong exhibition design
Reach out to Kathy Hart (katherine.w.hart@dartmouth.edu) and Amelia Kahl (amelia.b.kahl@dartmouth.edu) to discuss possibilities for your class and learn what material we may have in the collection.
