Public Tour: 'Women's Work'

Saturday, August 14, 2021 | 11:00 AM

Join us for live, interactive tours on Zoom. Student educators design and lead virtual tours featuring several artworks in the Kemper Art Museum collection, showing images of the artworks through screen sharing and answering participant questions.

On August 14, Leslie Liu (Sam Fox School '22) discusses a selection of works from the Teaching Gallery exhibition Women’s Work, curated by Lydia McKelvie (AB ‘22), Alice Nguyen (AB ‘22), and Hannah Ward (AB ‘21), the recipients of the 2019 Arthur Greenberg Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship. The exhibition examines the depiction of feminized labor within sociopolitical contexts that have affected women’s economic agency and identity from the late-nineteenth century to today.

This hour-long tour is free, but registration is required. Register here >>

Support for this program is provided by Women and the Kemper.
