The Orange County Young Curators (OCYC) Program will bring together high school juniors and seniors from across the county to learn about museums, contemporary art, and all aspects of curatorial practice throughout the 2024–25 school year. Together with artists, peers, and museum staff, students will support the development of an exhibition from start to finish before it opens at OCMA in June 2025. The program will enable teens to carve out a space for themselves within the museum, requiring them to produce a variety of projects and programs that result in hands-on museum work.

Applications are now closed.
