Print & Drawing Curatorial Council

Curatorial Membership and Programs

The Print & Drawing Curatorial Council was formed in 1982 to support the Department of Prints and Drawings in its efforts to offer educational programs and to further enrich the MIA's permanent collection. Council activities are designed to allow interested persons to learn more about original prints and drawings. The council also encourages private collecting with workshops, study-room seminars, and special opportunities to purchase prints and drawings from visiting dealers.
