Show ( The Utah Museum of Fine Arts University of Utah September 2001 SAVE THESE DATES! A Message from the Curator September 5, 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. MIC Training Please come to find out what Museum in the Classroom is all about. Attendance at this traming does not commit you but does provide a great opportunity to discover what preparation the PARTners classes receive prior to their Museum visit and to better adapt your tours. The Steering Committee and I want to take advantage of the new teaching year to remind all docents about proper attire. We should try to reflect the elegant look of our new building. Yes, we spend a lot of time on the floor with our tour groups, but we should still try to dress appropriately as teachers to these students. We may, in fact, have just come in from gardening, but let's take a minute to change from "grubbies" into a dressy casual attrre before headmg to UMFA. We want the students to feel comfortable and have a good time as they tour, but we should also be settmg an example of proper museum dress and behavior!
