Technical Practices

Course description

Students are introduced to safe practices and tool-specific skills necessary to produce the specialized furniture, framing, equipment, and mounts required in museums and galleries. Through various lab-based projects, students develop solutions to the challenges inherent in the proper archiving, shipping, and exhibition of diverse artefacts. Attention is paid to specific techniques required to install a diverse range of exhibitions (time based, historic, site specific, etc.)

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
