Reimagining Museums: Disruption and Change
Thursday, February 25
6:00PM ET
As museums acknowledge their legacy as colonial institutions, many are reimagining their mission as agents of decolonization and social justice. The pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement, and other community issues continue to create opportunities for reflection and growth. How can American museums—especially those that have strong relationships with Indigenous communities—respond to current national conditions of social unrest and political turmoil? How have New England museums fared and what is likely to happen over the next two to three years? Please register to attend.

4th Annual Jubilee
Saturday, February 27
6:00PM ET
The annual Jubilee is a celebration of Caribbean heritage and culture. We immerse the attendees with Caribbean music, history, and artistry (and usually food). Everyone, not just members of the Harvard community, are invited to attend, and there are performances by student and professional groups, as well. The greatest attraction of the night is when we give our Entertainer of the Year Award to a deserving Caribbean artist that has heavily impacted the entertainment industry.

Hosted by: Harvard Caribbean Club

Learn how to make Tandoori Chicken Tacos and Classic Onion Pakoras with FLP!  From Monsoon Kitchens Co-Founder, Swati Elavia: "As a small girl in India, the smells of the samosas, pakoras, and other treats that came from my mother’s kitchen to celebrate monsoon season inspired a feeling for the joy that only food crafted with care can bring. Later, my work as a registered dietician taught me that those recipes had been as kind to my body as they were to my taste buds. That realization inspired my mission to replace the restaurant-style Indian foods crowding today’s market with the kind of cleaner, healthier foods served in so many of my native-country’s homes. I welcome you to warm up your own kitchen with a true taste of India." Register now.
