American historian Christy Coleman is the distinguished lecturer for the 2021 Seminar in Innovative Curatorial Practice.
Coleman is renowned for creating innovative, engaging, and inclusive museum exhibitions and programs that tell a comprehensive story of American history.
In this program she will discuss the power that museums have to genuinely engage with communities around what matters most to them.
While expertise within the museums is invaluable, it is wasted if not used to help communities address their issues and aspirations.
Established in 2014, the Seminar in Innovative Curatorial Practice is a partnership between the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture and the Harvard Art Museums.
The program engages renowned scholars whose innovative and interdisciplinary practice challenges traditional approaches to exhibitions.
These innovators share their work with the broader public through a lecture, and with Harvard students and faculty, through discussions focused on rethinking ways to integrate the university’s art, natural history, science, and social science collections with the teaching and research mission of the university.
