“So, tell us about yourself” (An Arts Career Resume/CV Workshop)

Led by Leslie Wilson, Smart Museum Curatorial Fellow, this participatory workshop will holistically focus on resume/CV writing for careers in the arts and provide a forum to discuss the state of the job market during COVID-19. Participants will be required to submit a resume/CV draft and read one set of materials from a fellow student in advance of the workshop. Overall, this forum aims to provide support tailored to applying for your first jobs after graduation. Open to graduating 4th years in Art History and current MAPH students.

Join members from the Smart Museum’s staff as they speak about their current positions and the serpentine paths of their careers. Speakers will include representatives who work in curatorial, education, registration, exhibition design and coordination, publications, grant writing, and communications.

Rachel Cohen 'Remembers' Museums

During this intense period of closures, uncertainty, and isolation, Rachel Cohen has been reviewing thousands of photos of artworks that she has taken over the last nine years, creating a ‘remembered museum.’ Cohen is a Professor of Practice in the Arts in the creative writing program. Besides frequently teaching courses on writing about art that are cross-listed in art history, she also leads an annual session on writing labels for COSI Fellows at the Art Institute of Chicago.

Urban Architecture & Design at the University of Chicago presents the Spring Design Workshop, a mini-course to learn and practice your design skills (manual, digital, or both) through a microproject, guided practice, revision & peer critique.
