Criticism and Curatorial Practice at OCAD U is the first undergrad program in Canada to prepare artists to be critics and curators. Students in our program also get experience in the studio making art themselves. We believe that people who work in all areas of the art and culture world benefit from this hands-on experience.

In this program, students will learn about professional practices in museums, galleries, and many other creative institutions. Students will benefit from studying with artists, curators, writers, and designers. Students will also learn how contemporary art and design productions and exhibitions reach the public.
