KENNEDY MUSEUM OF ART at Ohio University
BLOG MANAGED BY THE MUSEUM EXPERIENCES TEAM at KMA
We took a new approach to our Sunday open studio programs for families this semester, leading to increased participation by members of the community, many of whom were new visitors to the Museum. In collaboration with an artist, a curator, and educators from WOUB Public Media Learning Lab, our student staff facilitated new experiences for our visitors during Art Encounters programs that highlighted the power of sharing.
Hello! My name is Basil Masri Zada, and I am the Graduate Associate of Multimedia and Technologies at the Kennedy Museum of Art since 2015.
Spring semester began with an outstanding collaboration within the College of Fine Arts to host a residency, workshop, lecture, performance, and exhibition with internationally known artist Carrie Mae Weems. Here, Ms. Weems meets with Ohio University students in the exhibition “The Usual Suspects.”

¡Hola! My name is Jessica Minarchek and I am a double major of Spanish and Spanish Education with a Linguistics minor. I currently spend two nights a week teaching English to women from Saudi Arabia through a program called English for All. Besides teaching, I am also a hiring coordinator for Baker Center Catering. As you all know, I work with Rachel at the Kennedy Museum of Art to facilitate the Spanish tours for classes at the University.
Hello blog readers! My name is Rachel Broughton and I’m the Spanish Language Programs Assistant here at the Kennedy Museum of Art.
After working at a library and a hardware store for the past five years, I heard about a job at the Kennedy that involved Spanish and art, and instantly jumped on applying. I was looking for a job where I would get to use my brain, think creatively, and collaborate with others. That’s exactly what I got here at the Kennedy, and I am so grateful that I found a place that allows me to express my own style and methods of working. Another plus is that I get to use my Spanish skills on a regular basis!
