Student-Curated Gallery Exhibitions

About the Exhibition

This November, the Museum Object course is mounting "This Is How It Happened: An Officer's Perspective on Okinawa 1944-1946." Curated from and with the help of the FSU Institute on World War II and the Human Experience collection, the exhibition will follow one Naval Officer's perspective on the end of World War II and the beginning of the Occupation of Okinawa using photographs that he took during his time abroad.

Exhibitions will be mounted in the William Johnston Building Gallery, set in the newly renovated, LEED-certified William Johnston Building on Landis Green. With two glassed walls, facing the building's five-story atrium, the gallery is an exquisite and yet intimate space to show work.
