Touchstones: How Everyday Objects Become Carriers of Memory and Meaning with A. Kendra Greene

We live by the stories we tell. Kept in pockets or museum vaults, both individuals and institutions hold onto those tangible traces of who we are, what we know, and everything else we are desperate to remember. Stories inhabit the things we keep, and the ones we inherit, preserve, or choose to tell shape our identities and communities. Join writer, book artist, and museum worker A. Kendra Greene to consider everything from the quirks of Icelandic collections or rocks and birds and sea monsters—to the tokens each of us keep turning over, kept oh so close at hand.
