Graduate Student Hilde Nelson Curates Exhibit at the Fabric Workshop and Museum

Hilde Nelson, a fourth-year graduate student, has curated Some American Dreams for the Fabric Workshop and Museum, where she is a curatorial fellow.

On display until June 14, Some American Dreams explores the complexity of American-ness through lenses of history, memory, and mythology. The museum posted an interview with Hilde about the exhibition on its website.

In February 2025, Nelson represented Bryn Mawr and presented a talk entitled “’Other Than What Is Given’: Interrupted Visuality in Ja’Tovia Gary’s The Giverny Suite” at the 29th Annual Graduate Student Symposium on the History of Art at the Barnes Foundation.

In addition to its undergraduate program in the history of art, Bryn Mawr offers an A.B./M.A. program and a Ph.D. program.
