What is #AskACurator Day?

“It’s a way to talk to curators and people who work in cultural venues you normally don’t have access to.  #AskACurator is open to everyone: Museums, galleries, National Trust, Theatres, and more. You can ask anything that you’re curious about or want more information on.

Questions like:

What is it like to be a curator?

How do you decide what to display?

What is the most unique object in your collection?”
