Spreading the word! We’ve been asked to share this post on behalf of our colleagues at the Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Arts, who have organized a fundraiser featuring Kent Monkman. We know Monkman is an amazing speaker and his work is well-loved here at the Gallery (note: discounted volunteer ticket is just for Gardiner volunteers- AGO volunteers pay full rate)

Dear Colleagues –

I’m writing to you to let you know that the Gardiner Volunteering Committee is hosting its annual fundraising lunch on September 4^th.  Our guest speaker will be Kent Monkman, whom I’m sure many of you admire.  His topic will be “Decolonizing the Cannon” and he will be talking about his upcoming show at the Met in New York. 

A link to information on the event is attached.  Please feel free to share it with your colleagues.  https://www.gardinermuseum.on.ca/event/joy-ceramics-decolonizing-canon/

Please contact me if you have any questions.

Thank you so much!
