This professional development programme focused on the critical role of curatorial practices within museums, fostering professional growth and cross-cultural exchange.
Carolina Rito was guest curator of the curatorial training programme in Cape Verde. Rito organised a week-long programme of workshops, seminars and project development for cultural professionals based in Cape Verde. The focus of the activities centred around the role of curatorial practices in addressing contested memories and histories, and developing critical engagements with various audiences. For a week, the participants had the opportunity to enhance their knowledge about curating, have hands-on experience, and strengthen their professional experience. This programme of activities was organised in collaboration with BLI collective and ZeroPoint Art Gallery. The 12 participants were local practitioners who have prior training or equivalent experience in the cultural field and demonstrate a clear interest in enhancing their curatorial skills.
