This week, host June Thomas talks to Courtney Gilbert, curator of the Sun Valley Museum of Art in Ketchum, Idaho. In the interview, Courtney digs into the process of curating a “non-collecting” museum, which means they start from scratch with each exhibition, and they don’t keep a large inventory of pieces. She also explains how she comes up with ideas for exhibitions, what a good exhibition should do, and how she serves her specific community.
After the interview, June and co-host Isaac Butler talk about the importance of creating guidelines and best-practices for their work.
In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, Courtney discusses her education and career journey.
