A hallmark of my work at Johns Hopkins was the development of productive working partnerships with local museums, art and cultural centers, and heritage sites--all implemented in the context of the Hopkins classroom. Many of these were made possible by two major grants awarded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to the Program in Museums and Society, and a few are featured here.
