Practicing Equity: Inclusive Curation, Imaginative Methods, and Community Impact -- An Interactive Seminar

Practicing Equity is an interactive seminar designed for educators, artists, and cultural workers committed to building inclusive, community-centered teaching and research practices. The session integrates foundational texts from Black Feminist scholars and curators, alongside various community-centered exhibitions, to connect critical theory with actionable professional practice. Additionally, it outlines a methodology and approach to scholarship that reimagines possibilities for spaces of learning. Rooted in the Black Curatorial Institute’s Community Impact and Connection to Practice core pillars, this curriculum encourages participants to see teaching, research, and curatorial work as both an ethical responsibility and a transformative form of care.

This event is presented by the Eileen Lappin Weiser Center for the Learning Sciences in partnership with the University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA). Light snacks will be provided.
