Description

Join us as current Met fellows explore new avenues of research in art history, visual culture, interpretation, cultural heritage preservation, and scientific research through presentations, panel discussions, and gallery activations, such as talks, tours, and hands-on activities. The fellows will present cross-cultural and transhistorical connections throughout The Met collection that go beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries, bridging the visual arts and other areas of the humanities, sciences, performing arts, and fine arts.


All in-person presentations in Bonnie J. Sacerdote Lecture Hall, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education, are free, though advance registration is required to attend the presentations on Zoom. Talks, tours, and hands-on activities are on-site only. Those in the Uris Center for Education are free; those in the galleries are free with Museum admission. Note: Space is limited; first come, first served.
