麻豆传媒内幕Museum Studies Hosts Museums in Progress Symposium March 18

March 14, 2022

---

MACOMB/MOLINE, IL - - 麻豆传媒内幕鈥檚 will host 鈥淢useums in Progress鈥� at noon Friday, March 18 at the WIU-QC Riverfront Hall, room 111.

The symposium, which will also be hosted virtually, will include a discussion with museum professionals Hannah Mason Macklin and Professor Dan Hicks. Attendees will be able to discuss, learn and debate how curators are increasingly using anticolonial practices to engage with objects that have been plundered or defined through colonial ideologies.

Macklin is currently an education manager at the Columbus Museum of Art, and her project, 鈥淢useum in Progress,鈥� is widely recognized as innovative in relation to redefining the autonomous value of West African art objects in the museum鈥檚 collection.

Hicks is a curator of the Pitt Rivers Museum and professor of Contemporary Archaeology at the University of Oxford and the author of 鈥淭he British Museums,鈥� which has been the subject of much debate across academia and the museum sectors for the past few years.

This event is open free to the public. To attend virtually, visit to register.
