DESCRIPTION:Online Event\n\nDrawing on her recent book\, The Museum as a 
 Space of Social Care (2020)\, Dr Nuala Moore explores the potential of ‘
 care thinking’ for understanding the social role of museums. The present
 ation will outline key themes from a book written before the pandemic\, 
 and reflect on their significance in today’s broken world. It will refle
 ct on a range of acts of care that took place during lockdown led by mus
 eums’ community engagement teams\; tenuous but determined efforts to con
 tinue caring for those most vulnerable in our communities. From here\, s
 he will reassess the significance of care for recovery and the opportuni
 ties it presents as the cultural sector emerges from the pandemic.\n\nTh
 e second in Art History & Cultural Practices Research Seminar series 202
