The Evolving Role of the Museum: In Conversation with Anne Pasternak (Brooklyn Museum), Franklin Sirmans (PAMM) and Chana Budgazad Sheldon (MOCA), moderated by Bahia Ramos (Wallace Foundation) 

In a tumultuous time when our nation and the art world are confronted with a moral responsibility to advocate for equity and social justice, museums around the country must adapt to serve our communities. Is it enough for them to be places to exhibit thought-provoking artwork, or should museums more vigorously strive to engage the public and take an active stance on social issues?

The Evolving Role of the Museum is presented in collaboration with Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau for National Museum Month in May, and in partnership with our dear friends at CULTURED.
