- If you are not local and need to visit a museum outside of the provided list, please contact your professor with an alternative no later than three weeks before the paper is due.

You must submit the required documents (see list below) for proof of your visit with your paper and in the proper accepted format.

Assignment Instructions

You’ve seen a lot of artwork on your computer screen this semester. It’s time to experience the physical properties of the actual art in person and learn more about its history.

First, decide which art museum you would want to visit.
Before you go, call the museum or look up its policies, hours of operation, entry details, and parking. Ask about student discounts or discounted admission on specific days.
The majority of museums will permit you to take pictures of the artwork with your cell phone as well as notes with a pencil (no pen), but be sure to verify their restrictions.

Requirements

You will choose two pieces of art in the museum to write your paper. Do not choose artwork from the same artist.
- Take a picture of each work as displayed in the museum to include in your paper (required). Make sure the images are readable. Not too small or too large. These must be inserted directly into your paper. Do not send links!
For each artwork, follow steps 1-6 in detail as listed in the . This will require some research into the artist and ideas behind the exhibition or the artwork.
To conclude the written part of your paper, you will include a summary paragraph of your overall experience at the museum.
- What did you think of the space and how it showed the art or created the atmosphere?
- What did you enjoy the most about being there?
- Discuss what you learned from the museum visit, and how it changed your perspective or deepened your understanding of a particular topic or culture.
Include your proof of visit with images. All of these are needed:

- Take a selfie picture inside of the museum for your proof of attendance
- Include a ticket stub or receipt from the museum with date showing (can be a receipt from any part of the museum, or a copy of your online payment receipt for tickets.) Do not include any personal information (e.g. credit card numbers)
- Insert all of the photographs at the end of your paper. Do not send images as separate submissions to the assignment folder.
- Do not attach any links.

5. Submit the entire paper and proof as a single Word document or PDF ONLY. Do not send everything in separately. No screenshots or images of your written words will be accepted, it must be an online submission.

Grading

This paper will be graded on content, not length. That being said, the museum paper must be a minimum of 800 words. Title pages & citations for sources, if used, will not count towards the word count. Quality of your words is always important to consider.
Use complete sentences. Check for grammar and spelling. Be thorough and detailed.
Use art vocabulary terms that you have learned from the different modules and bold them in your paper.
Do not plagiarize or use AI to write your paper. This is easily detected. Rather, challenge yourself to do a good job on your own by taking the time to really work through the Art Analysis Guide.
