Greening the Museums is a series of webinars that aim to create dialogue on innovative ways to turn museums into leading sustainability hubs.
Pioneering UK museum professionals will present case studies and discuss issues around curatorial practices, building operations and audience engagement through the lens of sustainability, and share best practices on lowering the carbon footprint of museums and cultural heritage sites.
The series kicked off at CoMuseum 2021: (Re)Positioning the museum of tomorrow with an online workshop entitled Curating in times of climate and ecological crisis led by Lucia Pietroiusti, Founder and Curator of the General Ecology project at London’s Serpentine Galleries and Iphigenia Taxopoulou, General Secretary at mitos21 and Julie’s Bicycle Associate.
Registration will remain open until Thursday 10 March 2022.
The series is co-organised with the British Embassy in Athens and curated by Iphigenia Taxopoulou, General Secretary at mitos21 and Julie’s Bicycle Associate.
Julie’s Bicycle is a UK pioneering not-for-profit mobilising the arts and culture to take action on the climate and ecological crisis.
