Ever wonder how to curate your own personal art collection? Interested in the process of purchasing and maintaining works of art? Join the MIT List Visual Art Center for a comprehensive workshop on collecting art today. We will begin on campus with a lunch conversation lead by special guest-speakers on the art market and collecting. This will be followed by visits to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum to take a look at a historical, personal collection; a local commercial gallery to talk about the logistics and practices of buying and collecting; and the home of a local collector. Lunch and transportation will be provided by the List Center.
