Museum as Stage: Opening Doors through Oral History Performance

Learn how Professor Jeffrey Pufahl from the Center for Arts in Medicine at UF engaged his students with oral histories from the local community, in collaboration with both the Harn Museum of Art and the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program. In this video, Professor Pufahl and Eric Segal, Director of Education and Curator of Academic Programs at the Harn, discuss how this project was developed, including the approach and pedagogies used. The play resulting from this project, From Colored to Black, as well as related pedagogical resources are available to view on the Center for Arts in Medicine website.
