Curatorial Curiosity: #AskACurator Day

Intro Text

For the seventh (!) continuous year, the MCA’s curatorial team, including registrars and archivists, took to Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to answer your questions on September 12, annual international #AskACurator Day.

This year’s dialogue was quite lively: we received over 50 questions, and MCA employees including curatorial staff Naomi Beckwith, Nina Wexelblatt, Grace Deveney, and January Parkos Arnall responded to more than half of them—read on for some of our favorite questions and answers.
