Museums as Systems: Museums and the Publics

June 13, 2024

In-Person

6:00–7:30 PM

Museums as System 2024 program embarks on a series of insightful discussions centered around the theme "interdependence. Each day of the convening highlights a distinct facet of interdependent relationships within museums: Museums and Artists, Museums and Arts & Culture Workers, and Museums and Publics.

Panel Discussion

Museums and the Next Generation


This gathering of youth and other cultural workers serves as an opportunity for holding and unpacking the experiences of young people as contributors to museums. This conversation centers the perspective of youth participants in professional and creative museum programs, as well as the cultural workers who steward these experiences. Together, we will scrutinize the limitations and possibilities of the museum as a site for (un)learning and experimentation, while exploring ways to build environments of care for youth in and outside of museum spaces.


This program will be an in-person intimate conversation centering young voices and space will be limited. If you are interested in attending, please email [email protected].

Panelists

Amari-Grey, asmara, Jesús Estrada-Martinez, and Odille Zexter in conversation.

As our guiding framework, interdependence emphasizes collective flourishing. Unlike codependency, interdependence does not negate individual security but rather acknowledges that we are living in an interconnected ecosystem. Our capacity for sustainable growth depends on nurturing the well-being of our communities. As arts and cultural workers, we inhabit a unique intersection. We simultaneously serve as staff, museum members, and active participants in our communities. Recognizing the profound interconnectedness among us empowers us to comprehensively and holistically address challenges within the museum ecosystem.
