How does cultural and political change happen? What role can cultural institutions play in meeting the social, political, and ecological challenges of our times? This interdisciplinary course explores curation as a place for critical engagement with pressing social and political issues including prison abolition and climate destruction, using the current exhibitions and programs at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences as a case study.
