Knowledge into Action: The Museum’s Collection as a Catalyst
Each year, objects from the museum’s art collection serve as inspiration for Grinnell College students for discussion, research, writing, art making, and exhibition projects. Knowledge into Action features artworks that have enriched the learning experience for Grinnell College students who have gone on to have careers in museums and the arts. This exhibition is presented in celebration of the 25th anniversary of Grinnell College’s Bucksbaum Center for the Arts.
