Join Student Guide Hannah Gadway ’25 to learn about the installation she curated for the Harvard Art Museums’ U.S. Citizenship course, which helps people prepare for the U.S. citizenship exam through art. Gadway will share how Student Guides teach with objects in this context and will also discuss her curatorial process. The installation features more than 20 works, including some rarely exhibited works on paper.

This gallery talk is part of our New on View series, highlighting recent gallery installations and presenting new insights into recent acquisitions or old favorites.
