Working with the OCHM staff, students in Taunton High School’s AP US History Class create their own exhibition, from idea to opening reception and beyond. They are given a topic, a budget, and a 5-week crash course addressing issues specific to a temporary museum exhibition, such as deadlines, installation requirements, evaluation, and curatorial and educational goals. Students select the objects, complete the historical research, design and install the exhibition, create and implement a public relations campaign, write interpretive labels, and host a public opening reception. On view in the first floor gallery, free with regular admission, come and see their work!
