Transforming Stewardship: The Indigenous Collections Care (ICC) Guide

Speakers: Laura Bryant, Laura Elliff Cruz, Marla Taylor

Venue: Zoom

The Indigenous Collections Care (ICC) Guide provides a framework to respect and recenter collections stewardship practices around the needs and knowledge of Indigenous community members. This practical resource serves as a bridge between Indigenous community perspectives and traditional museum collections management practices, on the individual, community, and institutional level, to engage in a meaningful conversation about culturally appropriate care. The ICC co-facilitators and grant project manager will discuss how the ICC Guide was created, who it is for, and how it can be used to change collections stewardship practices.
