MAA Graduate Student Committee Community Outreach Workshop
Apr 18, 2023 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM (EDT)
The GSC has in recent years emphasized both a focus on building a global community of graduate students studying the Middle Ages and on developing public-facing content about the medieval period for specialists and non-specialists alike. In this workshop, we seek to bring these two nodes together. How can we take medieval studies outside of the university classroom (and the home office) and into the wider community? How do we identify interested communities? What kinds of projects are effective for communicating information about the Middle Ages responsibly? In this workshop, the GSC seeks to assist participants in creating opportunities for community engagement by bringing together a panel of medievalists who have created such projects.
Speakers include:
Alessia Rossi and Alice Sullivan, North of Byzantium
Alex Korte and Michelle Hamilton, University of Minnesota Medieval Books in Schools Program
Christopher Fletcher, Race Before Race
Claire Dillon, Medievalist Toolkit
