Meeting ID: 810 2223 0432
Passcode: 218472

This call is an opportunity for you to discuss and share what you’ve learned with other volunteers. Our focus is to create a positive space, to encourage bold and brave conversation, and to talk and grow together.

In this session, we’ll be incorporating break out rooms into our discussion, so folks have the opportunity to delve into deeper conversations with one another, in smaller groups.

To prepare for this call, we encourage you to consider the following questions:

  • What stood out to you about this session?
  • What is something that you learned that you didn’t know before?
  • Last year, the Curatorial team renamed works from the AGO’s Collection (with First Nations subject matter) as part of a broader effort to eliminate culturally insensitive language from titles in our collection. Has Wanda and Duke’s conversation given you more to think about in this regard?

Thank you for joining the discussion!

We look forward to seeing you there!
