Really enjoyed hearing from speakers at the @CuratingMagic webinar today. A lot of the talks really resonated with the work I did for my masters degree - it was so interesting to hear of all kinds of wonderful research, art and exhibitions around a topic close to my heart.
Thank you to everyone who attended Curating Magic 2022! We had a wonderful time and are very grateful to our amazing speakers. Hope everyone has a great weekend, from Tor, Helen and Emma x

We just heard from Anna Milon and Claire Slack, with their paper 'Curating Spiritual Landscapes' - incredible insight into the way we interact with sites of spirituality out-with the museum space. 💫
Currently listening to Dr Gillian McIver and Hanya ElGhamry discuss their fascinating exhibition, which focused on themes of Alchemy 💫
