This online course sets the stage for the JFKU CE series.  We will discuss the importance of museums to communities, starting with mission, vision, and values.  Lectures, discussions, and readings will explore museum functions, collections, programming, audiences, and stakeholders. Reflection and written assignments will draw on your own experiences and prepare you for learning and engagement in the next four courses. Registration is $350.  Please contact Susan Spero (sspero@jfku,edu) for more information!
