NYCMER Book Club, February 2020
NYCMER Book Club is back but with a twist!
How can museums remain as true public spaces for the community, both internally with staff and externally with visitors, within the capitalist and classist society we live in today? Join us to discuss the challenges in building a consistency in ethics within museums, and actionable steps we can take as museum staff.
