Almanac Talks: the curatorial, communities and the social is a new series of podcast episodes organised and hosted by art critic and curator Francesco Tenaglia which explores curatorial and artistic practices focused not only on exhibition making, but also on public programs, workshops, reading groups, civic activism and other forms of community engagement, as well as emerging theoretical and sociopolitical issues.
