That exhibition, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/umma.umich.edu\/content\/curating-edgefield\">Hear Me Now: The Black Potters of Old Edgefield, South Carolina<\/a>,\u201d is a groundbreaking traveling exhibition that reexamines the role that African Americans played in the arts and industries of the antebellum south. The exhibition opened on September 9, 2022, at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.metmuseum.org\/exhibitions\/listings\/2022\/edgefield\">Metropolitan Museum of Art<\/a> (The MET) in New York City and has been described by the&nbsp;<em>New York Times<\/em>&nbsp;as \u201crevelatory.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students in the course will engage in team-based learning in faculty-led initiatives to prepare for the arrival of the exhibition at UMMA during Fall 2023. In advance of the show\u2019s opening, students will work closely and collaboratively with UMMA staff to address issues related to ethics, redress, and best practices for museums and other institutions interested in displaying work that was originally produced by enslaved artisans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Principal Investigator:<\/strong>&nbsp;Jason
