University Take Over the Museum

Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi

Calling all University students in the UAE!
University Take Over the Museum programme is back at Louvre Abu Dhabi, and we are calling upon University students across the UAE to partake in the third season (2024-2025. The programme will challenge students to explore human history through a wide lens that highlights and addresses the interconnected historical and cultural events through time..

This year's theme, "Threads of Time" invites students to explore the interconnection of past, present, and future through their creations.

To participate, students must search for threads that link different historical and cultural moments across time to create stories about global human development referenced through the artworks at Louvre Abu Dhabi or the museum itself (architecture, programmes, etc). Selected projects are activated at the museum throughout the season.
Proposals should interpret our collection and narrative- A Universal Museum embracing diversity and commonalities. 
In Season 3, there are multiple roles that enable students to innovate and respond to the challenge, through one or more of the following:

- Artist
- Content Developer
- Educator
- Graphic Designer
- Media Support
- Volunteer
