Museum Hue Virtual Town Hall
2025-03-26 14:00 - 15:30 UTC | Zoom
Join Museum Hue for a free virtual town hall as we usher in our 10th year anniversary. We will share our strategic plan, ongoing projects, and unveil HueCultures Northeast—the first phase of a national research initiative to amplify, map, and connect culturally-specific institutions led by Black, Indigenous, Latino/x, Asian, and all People of Color. Building on the success of HueArts New York City and New York State, this project highlights an additional 150 cultural institutions in the Northeastern United States that play a vital role in preserving and celebrating our history.
This town hall is an opportunity for arts professionals, cultural workers, researchers, and arts advocates to come together, learn, and be part of a larger movement toward equity in the cultural sector. In addition to an exclusive first look at new research findings and insights, we’ll raise awareness of museums and cultural centers shaping the region, and share thoughts with others invested in this work. Stephanie Johnson-Cunningham, Executive Director of Museum Hue, will lead the discussion and will be joined by guest speakers.
RSVP today and join us in this important conversation!
This event will be ASL interpreted on Zoom for participants from the Deaf, hard-of-hearing, and ASL communities. Please email us to let us know if you plan to use ASL interpretation or have other accessibility requests: info@museumhue.com
