Program overview

Students within the MCCL are able to explore a wide range of areas of study across: Curating: With a strong emphasis on contemporary practice our curatorial courses focus on experimentation and innovation. We combine theory with the development of independent practice through curatorial studios and dynamic and challenging live public projects. Cultural Leadership: With an emphasis on leadership as a form of action rather than status, our cultural leadership courses nurture collaboration, innovation and entrepreneurship. We combine a strong foundation in strategic management and ethical practice with an emphasis on emerging and experimental models of cultural production and audience engagement.
