Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Learners are to:
- decide on the types and number of artworks to exhibit and mount them based on the space available to suit the theme for the exhibition (e.g. artworks that reflect the physical and social environments of some communities in the world);
- display artworks by hanging, draping, placing, spreading, leaning, using plinths to raise or add height and depth to some exhibits;
- label the works using manual (calligraphy writing) or ICT (computer prints): name of artist, title of work, size of work, date of production;
- assign tasks and responsibilities to themselves (individually or in groups) and ensure they are carried out successfully (e.g. leading visitors through the exhibition space, explaining the concepts/title of the artworks and the theme for the exhibition, writing of comments and signing of visitors' books).
Note
- check/monitor visitors from improper practices (e.g. touching, lifting, handling and/or taking away some of the exhibits);
- organise opening and closing ceremonies for the exhibition.
