visting lecturers

Professional Seminars, offered on Fridays throughout the semester, bring noted museum professionals to Cooperstown to share their expertise for a day.

Below, students share some of their favorite memories from visiting lecturers' Professional Seminars this year.

"Robert Bull was an engaging and knowledgable speaker. His presentation is just one example of the many relevant and valuable seminars we have here at CGP."

 

"We were so lucky to have Elaine Gurian come to CGP. Her extensive work in museums is inspirational. The postcard exercise about creating exhibits was eye-opening."
