The Walker Art Center is looking a for a few good curators - and you could be one of them.

In a news release sent out this afternoon, the Walker announced that the staff and the public will co-curate an exhibition titled 50/50: Audience and Experts Curate the Paper Collection, slated for December.

Starting August 1, visitors to the Walker can cast their vote at a kiosk in the "Benches and Binoculars" gallery, or folks can curate from the comfort of their couch, by visiting the Walker online. Voting ends September 15.

So first the Minneapolis Institute of Arts wanted you to try your hand at curating, now the Walker Art Center wants you to help plan an upcoming show. What I want to know is, can we put this on our resumés?
