Curators for each exhibit upload a collection of images (jpg, jpeg, and png) and their associated metadata. Curators then have a few different options on how they can present that content to their users. At the minimum, an exhibit can just be a home page with text and a search bar that users can query with to browse the collections:

   


But this might not be very engaging to users!

By leveraging custom metadata facets, browse categories with curatorial descriptions, and curated feature pages, exhibit curators can develop more engaging interactions with their collections.

Exhibit Dashboard

Once your exhibit has been created for you, you should get familiar with your Exhibit Dashboard. To manage your exhibit:

  1. Log in to your Online Exhibitions account
  2. Navigate to your exhibit
  3. In the top right navigation, click on your email address and select “Exhibit Dashboard” from the dropdown menu.

    If you don't see this navigation item, you may need to contact the exhibit administrators to be added to the exhibit as an "Admin" or "Curator".
