SITE Santa Fe’s Young Curators are pleased to present their eighteenth juried exhibition, opening on March 25th from 6:30 – 8:30 pm at The Fine Arts Gallery at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design.
SITE Santa Fe’s Young Curators is a weekly after-school program for high school students. The program’s primary goals are to encourage teenagers’ connection to contemporary art and provide a context for an exploration of the structure and production of exhibitions. During their hour-long meetings, the Young Curators learn the skills and procedures necessary for creating an exhibition including: determining the theme for the show; putting out a call for entries through the media; writing curatorial statements and press releases; choosing the artwork; and helping to install the exhibition.
For further information on the Young Curators program, please call Joanne Lefrak at 505.989.1199, x19 or email lefrak@sitesantafe.org.
