Whitworth Museum Careers Event

Career Days are organised annually by the AAH Student Members Committee. These one-day events are intended to introduce student members from different institutions to options for future career development and to set out the sorts of opportunities which may be available to students.

Careers Day 2008 - Friday 7 March, Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester
This year’s Careers Event was designed to reflect the huge range and diversity of Manchester’s vibrant arts scene, and the wide variety of careers open to art history students. The event brought together a range of individuals willing to share their experience and expertise. These included writers, academics, curators, conservators and educators from some of the North-West’s most outstanding cultural institutions: The University of Manchester, Urbis, The Whitworth Art Gallery, The Castlefield Gallery, and more. The day included a tour of the two current William Blake exhibitions; Mind-Forged Manacles: William Blake and Slavery and Blake’s Shadow: William Blake and his Artistic Legacy; by curator Heather Birchall, as well as a ‘behind-the-scenes’ look at the Whitworth Art Gallery.
