Planning the reinterpretation of Toledo Museum of Art’s American art collection and implementation of a temporary exhibition of artworks.

This proposal directly support the vision of the Toledo Museum of Art's (TMA) strategic plan: To become the model art museum in the United States for its commitment to quality and its culture of belonging. The work aligns tactically with TMA’s objective to Broaden the Narrative of Art History, where is engages multiple programs and projects. Most specifically, Trip to the Mountaintop supports the program to “Expand the Ambition and Diversity of the Exhibitions Program,” while the broader recasting of American art history supports the program to “Activate the Galleries in New Ways.” The objective for ongoing work of expanding lessons learned from this project will be used support to our broader reinstallation in future years
