MFAH Fall presentation:

The following pieces below are your assignments for oral presentations at Houston's MFAH this fall. The presentation will be 1/2 of your final. If you have any questions, please send me a message here: HERE.

The visit to the MFAH will occur on Saturday, November 6th or Saturday, November 13th.

Time is your friend. The pieces are assigned almost a year in advance, so you have the time needed to be able to do a 5-7 min presentation on the piece. You have one highlight of the collection.

Website for the Museum of Fine Arts-Houston: http://www.mfah.org

It is highly recommended that you visit the MFAH to become familiar with your piece:
The Museum is free on Thursdays!


In your summer binder, you were given some information on the piece. You will need to have one more resource for your bibliography. Below are the assignments:
