TECHNICAL ADVISORS

Technical Advisors play a very important role within the structure and team of Visual Voices. They are experienced professionals within their field, with valuable perspectives relevant to the work and mission of the organization. Ongoing conversations with the program team provide the organization with evolving insights from artists, academics, educators, curators, journalists, researchers, communications specialists, filmmakers and more. Such a dialogue allows for the different perspectives to respond to one another and help shape the conversation accordingly. This has been a very important process in the organizational development of Visual Voices and continues to help us improve.
