A thought-provoking talk exploring feminist and queer perspectives, social justice and radical ecology.
Eleanor Thirlway, Co-Production Curator, will discuss why it’s crucial to rethink the stories we tell in museums, challenging dominant narratives and highlighting overlooked voices. Discover new interpretations of pieces in the collection and explore how reimagining these stories can reshape our understanding of history and art.
