Summer is in full swing here at the Museum. We’re excited to see so many visitors in the galleries enjoying the current exhibitions and programs. This month we are happy to welcome Casey Braun, the Museum’s new curator, and Sean Kramer, the Museum's new Andrew W. Mellon Post-Doctoral Curatorial Fellow. We look forward to introducing them to the Bowdoin community, as well as to those friends of the Museum beyond campus. You can read more about Casey in the profile below; Sean will be featured in the September e-bulletin. August marks the conclusion of this summer’s student internship program. We are truly grateful for the many contributions that the Museum’s five student interns have made this summer. You can learn more about their work in a special program on August 4th. And be sure to mark your calendars for a special program and reception on August 11th with artist Katherine Bradford.
 
See you at the Museum!
