My Project

Project Museum is a class and community museum run by High School Credit students at New Haven Adult & Continuing Education Center in New Haven, Connecticut. Our Credit Diploma Program provides students 17+ with an alternative route to a high school diploma.

In Project Museum, students curate an exhibition filled with objects we collect and create, as well as design related programming for our community.

The class complements our school's ENGAGE program, in which students develop real-world skills to use in their careers. In November 2024, Project Museum students ran a week-long Beauty Exhibition, featuring a reception, panel discussion, and community art workshop.

During our Spring Trimester, Project Museum aims to run our second in-person exhibition--this time off-campus and community-based. We hope the new location will encourage students to bring their families.

In order to provide students with a secure location to display objects, we are asking for locked display boxes.
