[UNF-DHI] Tomorrow: Cool Anthropology event on Zoom

[Pfister, Anne]

Please join the DHI on Thursday, March 31, at 6:00 pm for "Cool Anthropology: How to Engage the Public with Academic Research."

Cool Anthropology's founders and directors, along with three authors featured in their new edited collection, will discuss insights into the process of forging and maintaining the community collaborations essential to making academic research accessible beyond academic spaces. Panelists will share insights and challenges they have encountered, describing how anthropological research has informed their work, focusing on visual and performance art and virtual reality film experiences for the public. Through using these modalities, panelists will highlight how they are able to enrich both their storytelling and their community activism/advocacy with anthropology.
