APRIL Colloquium Fellow 2026
I'm pleased that I've been selected as 2026 Fellow for the Association for Public Religion and Intellectual Life (APRIL) Colloquium on “Representing Religion in Museums.”
The colloquium will provide a forum of like-minded cultural workers to discuss just how museums address religion and treat religious objects.
