October 25th Visit Day

Program Visit Days are an informative experience for prospective applicants considering admission to the Winterthur Program in American Material Culture.

Visit Days take place at Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library on four fall Fridays; preregistration is required.

Your visit begins (please arrive at the Visitor Center no later than 8:45 a.m.) with an introduction to the program’s mission, methods, faculty, and application process followed by Q & A time.

Your visit also includes attendance at Thesis Seminar. During this class, prospective applicants will hear two second-year fellows present their thesis research, followed by questions and comments by the program faculty and fellows.

You are also invited to join current fellows for lunch and conversation at the Visitor Center (purchase lunch there or bring your own). Afterwards, you are invited to explore Winterthur on your own (complimentary and optional). Information on upcoming exhibitions and public programs at Winterthur can be found at www.winterthur.org.
