The relatively new role of community engagement curator is still being defined as museums identify how to incorporate diverse audiences into their exhibitions and programming. This session will present multiple views of how community engagement curators (and those with similar titles) position themselves to act as conduits between the public and the museum.

Learning Objectives:

• Hear from community engagement curators about their dedicated positions within the museum structure.
• Discuss how museums can be inclusive in working with their communities.
• Discuss how museums can be inclusive in working with their communities.
