Cunningham Center Class Visits The Cunningham Center is a hub of activity throughout the academic year, where numerous Smith and Five College classes visit and closely observe works on paper in the museum’s collection. 2. Guerrilla Girls Workshop October 29, 2015 In collaboration with the Smith student organization Feminists of Smith Unite!—and as part of the related programming for the exhibition Women’s Work: Feminist Art from the Collection—the Guerrilla Girls participated in a two-day residency at Smith, including both a live public performance and an intimate, just-for-students workshop on the topic of art activism. 3. Beryl Ford ‘17 Gallery Talk February 27, 2016 Beryl Ford ’17, Arts & Culture Chair, Black Students’ Alliance, organized a gallery conversation, “To Know Ourselves: Exploring the Work of Black Artists in SCMA’s Collection.” The event—a lively, student-led conversation that explored the ways black artists have imagined and depicted their blackness, culture and history over the past century—was a precursor to Ford’s April 2016 Student Picks exhibition, Mundane Particulars: Locating the Extraordinary in Ordinary Moments. 4. Mindfulness + Your Museum March 23 and 25, 2016 A collaboration between SCMA and the Student Museum Advisory Council, this yoga-inspired workshop with certified yoga instructor and art museum educator India Clark combined observation and meditation for a unique, relaxing and insightful art encounter in the galleries. The program included stretching, sketching, mindful breathing and listening exercises. 5. Student Picks Various dates Student Picks, SCMA’s lottery-style student exhibition program, gives Smith students the opportunity to learn how to curate their own one-day show, choosing art from the museum’s Works on Paper collection with guidance from Cunningham Center staff. The 2015-16 winners—Amalia Leamon ’18, Stephanie Pinedo ’18, Anna Saunders ‘17J, Junmanee Cadenhead ’16, Beryl Ford ’17 and Ellen Sulser ’18—were mentored by Curatorial Fellow Colleen McDermott. Exhibition details are available at smith.edu/artmuseum/ Collections/Cunningham-Center/Student-Picks. 6. Night at Your Museum Planned with the help of the Student Museum Advisory Council, this annual after-hours party attracted 1200-plus guests to celebrate the newly-redesigned galleries and the exhibition, Dislocation/Negotiating Identity. Festivities included South Asian-inspired refreshments, live performances by student groups—SC Masti (pictured here) and The Smiffenpoofs—music DJ’d by Smith College radio WOZQ, hands-on art-making, a photobooth and more. 1.
