We're excited to introduce an updated schedule and the next four months of topics for the Unpacking discussion series!
Moving forward, we will be running Unpacking in two "seasons" each year. Fall season will be Aug., Sept., Oct., and Nov. Spring season will be Feb., Mar., Apr., and May. This allows for both organizers and participants to have breaks in critical times of year and provides a structure in which to focus our discussion topics. For Fall 2022, we're focusing on collections and how personal bias, systemic racism, organizational practices, and more affect our work and how we can make progress in these areas. We're so pleased with how our discussions have been going so far, and continue to improve with feedback and experience. Thanks so much for reading and we'll chat with you again soon.
