Learning Format: Conversation
This facilitated conversation will focus on how museum professionals are relinquishing authority to Indigenous communities to be more inclusive, equitable, and accessible institutions. Panelists will bring different perspectives and experiences, where we share how we are shifting ideas of authority and power to source communities. Attendees are encouraged to share and participate in this open conversation.
