Abstract

Inspired by their new university president’s call for global outreach and a desire for community partnerships, several libraries at the Ohio State University worked with the Columbus Museum of Art on a proposal for exhibitions and public programming. Called ‘Artist as Activist’ this exhibition and educational program proposed a dynamic collaboration between the institutions, with the goal of broadening the audience for the museum’s and the libraries’ collections and developing an inclusive educational and dissemination model.
