Gallery talks, scholarly lectures, seminars, and symposia are offered throughout the year, presenting current research in the field of art history and related disciplines. These programmes, open to the public, often feature graduate student research and dynamic scholars whose work relates student and faculty interests. Undergraduate art enthusiasts may get involved by jointing the Harvard Art Museum Undergraduate Connection, an organisation of like-minded students who raise awareness of the Art Museum and its programms across campus. Last year nearly a thousand studnets came to social events at the museum that were entirely organised by this undergraduate support group. Undergraduate Connection events featured gallery talks and tours developed by specially trained student guides, sketching stations, and live music, as well as free pizza and refreshments. Experienced museum educators and curators are available to consult with faculty in various disciplines on how the collections might support course goals.
