Back on the podcast is Mark Sabb, Senior Director of Innovation, Marketing and Engagement at the Museum of African Diaspora (MoAD). On today’s episode we discuss what museums such as MoAD, are doing to adapt to being closed during the pandemic. We also talk about the work they can and need to do in resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement.

This week I catch up with a former classmate of mine and fellow intern, Martin Strickland who now currently works at the YBCA (Yerba Buena Center for the Arts) as an Exhibitions Associate, Registration and Production. An Alabama native, Martin discusses his educational background which also includes the time he spent in New Orleans working for NO/AIDS Taskforce and the New Orleans Museum of Art. We also talk about the various positions the has held at the YBCA.
The latest show opening at the YBCA is titled Space Brainz-Yerba 3000 which features two projects by Damon Rich and Jae Shin. To learn more about it visit www.ybca.org.
