Invitation to join the Curatorium Forum

Published on 11/4/2021

curatorium

Curatorium is a collective of anthropologists, artists, activists, makers, and thinkers. It is an attempt to create the space for those who work differently to find one another; a shared experiment in creative and critical thinking, that we hope will generate new affirmations and critiques of what anthropology makes possible. This forum is a place for sharing information, news, and ideas relating to these aims and activities; a place for building community.


This is an open forum - all interested AAS members and forums participants are welcome to join!
