Great Ocean Speaker Series | Indigenous Perspectives on Curation with Kimberley Moulton

Join curator Kimberley Moulton for this public lecture on Indigenous perspectives on curation in the third installment of the Great Ocean Speaker Series.

This Speaker Series responds to core teachings in Indigenous Art History in the Australia Pacific Region, inviting leading First Nations and Great Ocean artists and curators to campus to speak to diverse themes in contemporary practice.   

This Speaker Series has been developed in collaboration with Dominique Chen (Senior Lecturer, School of Communication and Arts) as part of UQ Art Museum's ongoing work to engage artists, colleagues and students while the Museum relocates. Audiences are warmly invited to join students for these guest lectures, which will take place across campus in September and October 2026.
