🌈 Museums and LGBTQIA+ Inclusion Museums are more than spaces for history—they're places to foster diversity and celebrate every community's story. The NEMO - Network of European Museum Organisations guidelines emphasize: ✨ Awareness: Every museum should acknowledge and address the needs of LGBTQIA+ communities in collections, staff, and programming. 💡 Tools: Practical examples and ethical practices for inclusivity in museums. 💬 Advocacy: Museums as safe spaces for dialogue, particularly in challenging political climates. 🤝 Collaboration with LGBTQIA+ communities and a thoughtful approach to exhibitions are key to fostering respect and representation.

ARTISTS AS CHANGE-MAKERS We need artists that are involved in change-making. That's pretty clear. Our statement for residencies for the future, after more than 35 mostly successful artists staying at Hektor, couldn't be more clear: it is about making the world not just prettier, but also more livable, durable, engaged and sustainable. In 2025 we are looking for artists that make change through their creativity and or creative process. Like Salomée Souag and Zeno Aerts, who have both spent the last weeks creating and cataloguing natural pigments. Or Ruby Rare, who guides you towards healthier relationships. Or Matthew Carney, who showed the queer community the wilderness of Lanzarote. If you're up for a change, check out the call: https://lnkd.in/duhJRZsm If you know someone who might be interested: tag them.

Katharina Kaminski, a prominent sculptor, is bringing attention to the topic of intersex identity through her personal journey and collaboration with Rodrigo Garcia in creating art. • This exploration highlights the power of art in amplifying diverse voices and experiences within our society. • By shedding light on her intersex identity, Kaminski is challenging societal norms and fostering conversations around acceptance and understanding. • Their partnership in creating meaningful artwork signifies the importance of collaboration in creating positive social change. • This project serves as a platform for advocating for inclusivity and celebrating the beauty of diversity in all its forms. • As we move forward, projects like this will continue to push boundaries and spark important discussions about identity and acceptance. #IntersexIdentity #ArtisticExpression #SocialChange

A Thousand Channels – a queer (*) mapping 🌎 platform 🎁 “The diverse social and political activities of queer people are mostly fleeting, temporary and not a natural part of the public image of a city. With A 1000 channels, we are developing a platform that offers queer actors, groups and projects a way to report on these spaces and events and make them visible.” (*) = “Pride flag variant based on Daniel Quasar's 2018 design combining elements of the Philadelphia flag and the trans pride flag, and brown and black” (that is what you get when you +c and +v the emoji from the article) https://lnkd.in/eHd6JB6p

Art and Culture for All 🌍 Cultural venues should be gateways to inclusion. Visiting accessible museums and galleries has enriched my life immeasurably. Everyone, regardless of their abilities, should have equal access to enjoy and participate in the arts. In everything I do, I advocate for an inclusive approach that values and celebrates diversity. I am committed to promoting equality and ensuring that disabled people have the same opportunities and experiences as everyone else. By championing accessibility in the arts, we can create a richer, more vibrant cultural landscape where everyone feels welcomed and valued. Visit my website to see how we can work together to make the arts accessible to all. https://lnkd.in/e4t5VfXJ Image description: In this photo, I’m sitting in a bright, open space, holding a notebook and smiling as I discuss accessibility in the arts. I’m wearing a white blazer over a floral top, with my short mousey brown hair styled neatly. The setting is inviting and modern, reflecting my passion for ensuring everyone, regardless of their abilities, has equal access to enjoy and participate in the arts. #ArtForAll #InclusiveCulture #AccessibilityInTheArts #Equality #Diversity #Inclusion #CulturalInclusion #AccessibilityMatters #InclusiveVenues

In this online conversation, we will be exploring the unique power that socially engaged art offers us.

The recent celebration of World Day for Cultural Diversity, Dialogue, and Development presents an excellent opportunity to reflect on cultural diversity within the art world. The art world, a sector with immense potential for fostering intercultural dialogue, has been heavily criticised for its lack of diversity and predominantly white demographic. Movements from Black Lives Matter to #MeToo have undeniably highlighted the need for change within the art world, but recent statistics reveal a persistent lack of progress. For instance, a 2021/22 Arts Council England report analysing data from 806 arts organisations found that only 13% of the workforce identified as Black, Asian, and ethnically diverse. Furthermore, the Burns Halperin report examining exhibitions and acquisitions across 31 US museums from 2008 to 2020 showed that works by Black American artists comprised a mere 2.2% of acquisitions and 6.3% of exhibitions. Despite some progress, systemic change remains crucial to diversify the art world. This entails increased leadership representation from diverse voices, fostering financial inclusion for artists, showcasing a broader range of artists in exhibitions and collections, and enhancing arts education and accessibility. As a leading art world recruiter, we recognise the crucial role we play in moving the needle. To honour our commitment to equal opportunity and widening participation/access, we are constantly on the lookout for ways to do more through partnerships and collaborations to reach a wider network of talent and to continue educating both our team and clients on the core principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion. #culturaldiversity #artworld #SML

Ever wonder what your life would be like if you had made different choices? This thought-provoking video follows a tired, tattooed 30-something woman as she seeks refuge from the rain at the Museum of Alternate Realities. Inside, she meets different versions of herself who took different paths in life. The museum guide introduces the concept of "What if," and the main attraction is meeting other versions of oneself. The women share their stories, reflecting on how their lives unfolded differently based on their choices. The conversation sparks insights: Our choices shape our reality: The alternate realities highlight how different decisions lead to vastly different outcomes. Happiness and success are personal: The women represent various paths to fulfillment, emphasizing that true happiness is individual and cannot be measured solely by societal standards. Empathy and compassion are universal: Despite their differences, all versions of the woman express a deep desire to make a positive impact in the world. Unexpected connections fuel growth: The discussion underscores the importance of embracing the unpredictable and how it can lead to personal and professional fulfillment. Inequality is pervasive, but we can all contribute: The women mention social issues like human trafficking and LGBTQ+ discrimination, reminding us of the need for awareness and action towards a more inclusive society. Self-acceptance is essential: The women find common ground and inspire each other, showing that embracing our unique journeys is key to realizing our potential. Perseverance is key: Despite challenges, the women demonstrate a determination to keep growing and making a difference. Call to action: Don't let your past hold you back. The world needs your unique spark to light the way forward. What alternate reality do you want to create? Let me know in the comments what alternate reality you'd like to explore! #Wisdom #Success #Impact #Inclusion #SelfAcceptance #Perseverance #AlternateRealities
