Seminar in Curating Prints

London & Paris | Late March – Early April 2027

Print Quarterly invites applications for a seminar dedicated to the connoisseurship and curatorial practice of prints. This program offers participants the opportunity to deepen their expertise across the field, from printmaking techniques and history to approaches to display and public engagement within museum contexts. Participants will gain insight into old master prints as well as contemporary printmaking and the art market. Taking place over approximately nine days in London and Paris (exact dates to be confirmed), the seminar will be primarily hosted in museum print rooms.

The program will be led by the Editor of Print Quarterly, with contributions from senior experts. It is designed for early- and mid-career curators responsible for print collections who are seeking professional development.

Travel, accommodation and meal expenses will be covered.
