On February 5, Dr. Conroy's Urban Art class (UR 275) visited the Worcester Art Museum. Armed with field journals, their job was to enjoy themselves but also to observe the pieces, people, and places in the museum. After our visit, we wondered why people visit the museum and spent a class divided into focus groups to determine what sorts of things could be done in the museum to improve attendance and broaden its appeal to a younger and more diverse audience.
