Worlds in Process: Art from the SCMA Collection

Ongoing

This project, called Worlds in Process: Art from the SCMA Collection, pilots new strategies for displaying the collection.

The installation includes artworks from a range of time periods, cultures, materials, and perspectives alongside places to gather and reflect. When a group of museum staff set out to reimagine this floor, we wanted to try some new approaches, which included deepening our understanding of what visitors (especially Smith College students) find most meaningful and welcoming.
