“Recent Acquisitions: Storytelling Through Practices of Collecting” is an exhibition focusing on acquisitions Kennedy Museum has made in recent years. In addition to showcasing these new acquisitions, this exhibition offers insight into the acquisition process and the institutional considerations that inform the decision to acquire. The exhibition also sheds light on how curatorial practice creates meaning through interpretation of objects or groups of objects.
