Exhibits

The exhibits cover a variety of anthropological topics which reflect student interests and research and are continuously changing. They bring together the academic and professional learning of Museum Studies students.

From their knowledge of anthropology, students:

-Research and develop a relevant topic

-From the Museum's collections and loans from elsewhere, they use objects, pictures and text to tell anthropological stories

-Learn about object preservation, time and money budgeting, exhibit construction resources and techniques, and evaluating the viewer's experience within the museum setting.

 


The exhibits that result from this process are displayed in a variety of places at the University of Denver: the Museum of Anthropology Gallery, Driscoll Center, and Penrose Library.

Tours of the gallery's exhibits are available for groups or individuals. Students from other departments and schools at the University of Denver and from the Denver metropolitan area are encouraged and welcome to participate in the Museum. The museum also periodically hosts traveling or guest-curated exhibits. Arrangements can be made through the Museum's Director.
