<p>ken, Williams College has one of the best art history programs in the country. Many of the directors and curators of top museums are Williams graduates, so much so that they are called the Williams mafia. There are three museums on or near campus and all offer hands-on curating experience. Summer museum internships and study abroad opportunities are also part of Williams program.</p>
<p>Other small liberal arts colleges with good art history are Wesleyan, Skidmore, Bard, Oberlin, Hamilton. All of the ivy league with the exception of Dartmouth – Yale and Brown especially. Johns Hopkins, Carnegie Mellon, NYU. Some of the big state U’s like Cal and Michigan.</p>
<p>I agree that New York is a great place to study art, but then again so is Williamstown, so choose the location that best suits your preference.</p>
