:: Curatorial Roundtable Series 

Presented in conjunction with Curating Lab 2012, the Curatorial Roundtable series is a public talk series that gathers together curatorial and industry practitioners across different spectrums to discuss their latest exhibitions and projects. Although presented primarily for the participants of Curating Lab 2012, the series is an opportunity to bridge the gap between the curator and the audience, providing opportunities for interaction and stimulating discussions on curatorial practices and process.
