Laura Herman

This summer, I have been living in Paris whilst working in a laboratory studying vision. What art museums spring to your mind at the mention of Paris?

This summer, I had a different Read more about Kristin Qian[…]

Julia Cury

I’ll start with a confession: last month, in New York City, I visited the Whitney Museum of American Art and didn’t pay close attention to any of the art. It’s sacrilegious, I know—especially for a member of the Princeton Art Museum SAB. In my defense, while I was in New York City, I also visited Read more about Julia Cury[…]

Alice Maiden

From the moment I confirmed my internship at the National Museum of American Jewish History (NMAJH) back in the spring, until the final weeks of my internship, I have repeated one conversation over and over again upon telling someone the name of the Museum.   Friends respond: “But you’re not Jewish!
