Course Overview
INTRODUCTION
Curation is the thoughtful process of selecting and organizing content to create meaningful experiences.
Initially associated with art and museums, curation now spans various fields, including marketing and branding.
In marketing campaigns, curators craft narratives that resonate with audiences, while brand managers select
elements that shape a strong brand identity. In a world overflowing with information, curation helps filter out
the noise, enhancing our understanding of culture and creativity.
This 15-hour program is designed for marketing professionals, business managers, art administrators, and art
enthusiasts. It aims to equip participants with essential knowledge, strategies, and a passion for art and business
management. Through a blend of theoretical insights, practical exercises, and interactive sessions with industry
practitioners, attendees will gain valuable skills and perspectives in the field.
