MUSEUMS IN CONVERSATION:
Preserving Heritage Roundtable Discussion
| | | FRIDAY, MAY 28 | 6PM - 8PM | AT THE HMAA | |
A Community Approach to Preserve Heritage is a collaborative roundtable that centers the collective responsibility of preserving cultural memory. Bringing together scholars, archivists, community members, and families, the conversation will explore how different groups can work together to safeguard stories, objects, and lived experiences that are often at risk of being lost.
Co-presented by the Heritage Museum of Asian Art (HMAA) and the National Hellenic Museum, this program intends to creates a cross-cultural platform for sharing knowledge, practices, and challenges related to heritage preservation. Participants will reflect on questions such as what should be preserved, how to connect past and future generations, and how communities can actively shape their own narratives.
This is a hybrid event, the roundtable welcomes both in-person and virtual audiences.
