INTERESTED IN MUSEUM WORK?

Located in the heart of Manhattan, the Museum at the Fashion Institute of
Technology (FIT) draws in more than 100.000 visitors each year to visit their

with innovative exhibitions and projects that advance knowledge of fashion.
Melissa Marra-Alvarez and Elizabeth Way will talk about the various stages
behind the curation of exhibitions and educational work and programming at
a museum. There will be the opportunity for a Q&A and you are welcome to
any questions you have on what it takes to work at a museum and the
behind-the-scenes of exhibition curation.
