The Madison Art Collection (MAC) is reaching new artistic heights this year! Recently, they launched a brand NEW free custom app by Cuseum to explore current MAC exhibitions, objects, and behind-the-scenes multimedia like what is pictured at the Lisanby Museum at JMU.

Seniors, Eun Han and Paige Holzner are taking advantage of the Art of Ancient Egypt Study Room which can be found in the app at http://bit.ly/3Iq435j and in person for free at the Lisanby Museum.

MAC is sponsored by the Office of Academic Affairs and the College of Visual and Performing Arts. Under the guidance of MAC staff, JMU students have the opportunity to participate in internships that offer hands-on experience in areas such as curation, collections management, and exhibition design. If you'd like to support students in this area, please consider giving during JMU's Reaching New Heights giving event Feb. 19-24 at https://bit.ly/3jVnysN.
