Past & Future |
|
Most of the DAC website provides information about current and recent educational resources, exhibitions, and programs, but some pages address the museum's institutional past and future plans. The Davison Art Center's name reflects the foundational role of George W. Davison (B.A. Wesleyan 1892), who donated the heart of Wesleyan University's print collection and enabled the creation of the DAC's current facility as an annex to the historic Alsop House. Aspects of the DAC's more recent history may be seen in pages on past exhibitions since late 1995 and a list of exhibition catalogs still in print. Other historically oriented pages touch on such topics as the history of teaching at the DAC. Looking towards the future, museum information projects and programs are using digital technologies to leverage and enhance the traditional value of the DAC collection for teaching and learning. These efforts complement and support the direct study of objects in many ways.
