Virtual Event: Climate Activism with Museums for Future

  • 1.  Virtual Event: Climate Activism with Museums for Future

    Posted 09-28-2021 09:18 AM
    Join the American Institute for Conservation's Sustainability Committee in an open forum chat on Friday Oct 1 at 12 pm ET with two experts from Museums for Future who will be answering our questions about climate activism. If you are feeling stuck or unsure of where to go next with your climate action and want to expand the scope of your reach, Anna Krez and Maggie O'Donnell can answer your questions.

    Both are Museums for Future collaborators who will discuss how they are using their roles as conservation and museums professionals to advocate for changes in political and global climate policy.  Anna Krez will be discussing actions leading up to the recent elections in Germany and her work with Museums for Future Germany, and Maggie O'Donnell will be speaking to us from New York City where she works at the Climate Museum.

    Please join us for this free event and bring your questions for the experts! Register here to receive a zoom link for this free event:  https://learning.culturalheritage.org/products/ask-an-expert

    If you have any questions you would like us to pose to the speakers you can send them in advance to aicsustainability@gmail.com with the subject line "Climate Activism Question". A zoom link will be sent out in a reminder post prior to the event.
