Roadshow Pilot Projects

Taking inspiration from the popular BBC and PBS television series, Antiques Roadshow, our ongoing Gatherings Roadshow series invites members of the project to dig into their own, personal archives and share short, contextual presentations on the objects, practices, and collections that inform their creative or research-related work. Since 2021, Roadshow presentations have featured objects including theatrical masks, musical instruments, and newly published plays; performance archives including genealogical records, notes of audience feedback, and memories of attending the theatre; and performative practices including bread making, beadwork, and the delicate process of repairing a birchbark cane.
