About the project: 

In 2020, ARCE initiated a four-year project in partnership with the US Department of Education with the two-fold goal of digitizing and publishing 13 projects from ARCE’s extensive conservation archive and partnering with faculty from community colleges, HBCUs, and minority-serving institutions to introduce student-curated digital exhibitions as in-class research projects. The initiative includes annual workshops for partner faculty to share knowledge, digital tools, and platforms with their students.

Select student projects are uploaded to the ARCE Google Arts & Culture Partner page and the ARCE Archive website annually, further disseminating the Conservation Archive to interested global audiences. The project aims to expand student and faculty experience, increase open access to ARCE’s unique Conservation Archive, and integrate digital humanities and management skills into the classroom at community colleges, HBCUs, and MSIs.
