Faculty Forums
These informational meetings will be held in advance of the opening of a temporary exhibition, as an opportunity for faculty to include an exhibition in syllabi and curricula for the upcoming semesters. IMA curators will provide a background on the structure and vision of an exhibition, as well as discuss specific works of art. Museum educators are also in attendance to discuss potential programming collaborations.

Educator Sneak Peeks
Educator Sneak Peeks are an opportunity for university and college educators to view a temporary exhibition before it opens to the public. Curators or museum educators will be on hand to answer questions and provide additional information. Occasionally, special activities will be made available. For example, a stone carving demonstration was performed at the Scholar's Preview for Roman Art from the Louvre.
