Lunch and Learn: In Solidarity: Reframing Visitor Experience and Museum Responsiveness for Community Resiliency

Description

Ideas of resilience often celebrate stories of adaptability, grit, and perseverance rooted in cultural values and community activism. Learn how a museum at the epicenter of L.A. pivoted during wildfire recovery, protests, raids, and the unconstitutional assault of Americans and undocumented immigrants, reframing visitor experience and community responsiveness through multidisciplinary advocacy.
