The Dialogue: The MCA Chicago’s annual conversation on museums, diversity and inclusion
@ Museum of Contemporary Art
220 E Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60611
Opening Wednesday, September 15th, from 6PM - 8PM
Profound changes in demographics, modes of cultural participation, and approaches to social interaction and community creation are making accessible, inclusive and diverse cultural institutions more possible and more necessary than ever. What does an architecture of participation look like at a civically-minded, contemporary art museum?
Following an introduction by MCA Pritzker Director Madeleine Grynsztejn, museum advisor and writer Elaine Heumann Gurian and artist Mark Bradford address the topic participation as it relates to museums, artists and audiences. The event then turns to discussion as both audiences and speakers respond to the ideas presented.
