Community-led Storytelling through Open Access Collections
This workshop will guide participants through the creation of their own cultural heritage storytelling process using the newly-launched Curationist platform.
Join and discover the major features and tools of the Curationist platform, as well as highlights from over 4 million records in the online collection, and hear some of the narratives created by ‘Critics of Color’ Program writers as examples of storytelling that can be done using this platform.
From there, workshop attendees will participate in a variety of activities designed to brainstorm and begin outlining a cultural heritage story grounded in their own work or personal experience. Participants will learn how to search for and find relevant images in open access collections, and how to begin building a story around these images.
Amanda Figueora is Curationist’s Community Director. She's based in Boston and was raised at the US-Mexico border. Amanda’s finishing her PhD in American Studies at Harvard and is also the co-founder of Brown Art Ink, an incubator to support women of color artists and culture workers. She has experience in public programs, content management, and web design. At Curationist, Amanda leads in building awareness, engagement, and encouraging connections between artists and organizations from underserved and grassroots cultural heritage communities.

About me
A human experience connector.
Whether at service as an author, as a manager, as a creative producer or as an artist, everything I do has the aim of raising an emotional impact into people’s existences, involving them in a conscious and shared narrative.
Since my early stages, I wanted to experience as many ways as I could to satisfy my urge of feeding on arts: by making art, voting my soul to writing, video-art, photography, acting and performing; to managing art, graduating at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice with a master’s degree in Economics and Management of Arts and Cultural Activities - University where I also taught Visual Communication as a Lecturer, to working in the arts curatorship field on an international scale with IoDeposito, or as a culture innovation startupper between Venice and London with the mission of engaging millennials in the art’s appreciation with my former project NØRA (2016) - who led me to be hosted as Guest and Speaker to the Third Europeana's International Conference "Cultural H
