How can we build and encourage pay equity for museum and cultural workers?

In this edition of Turning Points, panelists draw from their professional experiences to address this question. Michelle Millar Fisher, Ronald C. and Anita L. Wornick Curator of Contemporary Decorative Arts, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, facilitates a conversation with Dr. Nicole Cook, Program Manager for Graduate Academic Partnerships, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Trustee of Philadelphia Museum of Art Union, and founding member of Art + Transparency, and Hettie Judah, writer, campaigner and co-founder of the Art Working Parents Alliance (AWP). The conversation will place special emphasis on unionization in museums and equity for parents and caregivers in the cultural sector.

Turning Points: Museum Practice Now is produced by the the University Art Gallery (UAG) and Museum Studies Program at the University of Pittsburgh. Pairing recognized leaders in museum practice, the series aims to catalyze important questions about diversity and equity in museums.
