The Citizen Curator Project
The Myths of the Black Body exhibit is curated by Joshua King, Kao Masunari, and Mary Rubin as part of the Citizen Curator Project, developed within Dr. Barry Mauer's Visual Texts & Technology course. Citizen Curating offers opportunities for non-professional curators to create rhetorical, educational, and/or experimental exhibits from digitally archived materials. Both on-site and digital exhibits were created. The on-site exhibits are on display at the University of Central Florida (UCF) John C. Hitt Library's Special Collections and University Archives during May and June 2015.
The exhibits were made using archival materials from the African American Legacy: The Carol Mundy Collection: 1720-2010, held by the UCF John C. Hitt Library's Special Collections and University Archives.
