Reimagining Meanings
Co-curatorship and decolonising methods
Members of African diaspora communities are invited to attend this (by invitation only) session which aims to develop new understandings of the Museum’s African collections and develop an accompanying digital exhibition and a film documenting the approach.
Join Njabulo Chipangura, Manchester Museum’s Curator of Living Cultures, at this methods@manchester event, where you’ll be given insight into how the Museum is changing its approach to narrating the past. You’ll also hear more about how important local communities are to these developing understandings and approaches to decolonisation.
You will have the opportunity to handle objects and share stories, memories, and associations with other attendees.
By attending, you will help shape the Museum’s understandings of objects and have the chance to participate in a film about this object-handling activity and the Museum’s ongoing efforts to decolonise its collections.
