Love museums and learning about art? IC’s new concentration in museum studies may be for you. Launched last fall by the Department of Art History, the concentration will feature traditional classes and frequent field trips.

Jennifer Jolly, Associate Professor in the the Department of Art History, has received an NEH Research Fellowship for her project "Mexican President Lázaro Cárdenas's Legacy as a Nation Builder through His Art Patronage in Michoacan’s Lake District." The research is part of Professor Jolly's book-in-progress Creating Pátzcuaro, Creating Mexico, which examines Lázaro Cardenas’ extensive patronage in and around Pátzcuaro and pairs it with a history of images of this region in considering how the area figures historically in the post-revolutionary re-imagining of Mexico.
