Join Rebecca Haynes, Emerging Arts Leader intern in Development, for an in-depth look at the connection between museum fundraising, uplifting artists, and forging community. Through a collective reflection of The Odyssey by Bethany Collins, current Gwendolyn Knight & Jacob Lawrence Prize awardee, Rebecca will explore how artists and museums reconfigure language, symbols, and materials to create new value and meaning.

Emerging Arts Leaders represent the next generation of arts and museum professionals. Weaving together cross-disciplinary project work, hands-on training with SAM staff, and a diverse range of lived experiences, these interns bring vibrant and relevant perspectives to the research, interpretation, and programming that SAM uses to bring art to life.

Tickets

Free with museum admission.

The tour begins at the third-floor escalators.
