Introduction If you have always wanted to get involved in displays, exhibitions, festivals, events and art gallery set up across a wide range of creative disciplines and ages, this programme helps you to understand the different aspects to bring together to bring about a publicly viewed exhibition of any type. You understand the history of the first exhibitions in museums, how decorative arts were collected and displayed historically, the newer methods of engaging with your audience bringing in living exhibitions, experiences and story to displays, and the vital communication methods on offer to really augment creative materials, especially static displays. This is an interdisciplinary programme to explore how creative materials can be brought to public view. It gives you business methods, engagement and practical project delivery. You can go in several directions in your optional programmes which take you towards Museums, Galleries, and communication of arts to curating exhibitions.
