Museums are important in chronicling a city’s history and shaping its culture. Avid Learning, in collaboration with the National Gallery of Modern Art and Kala Ghoda Association, will be organising a panel discussion titled What Makes a Museum: Reimagining Spaces and 
Redefining collections. 

Aparna Andhare is an independent art historian, curator and writer, who is one of the speakers at the session. She speaks about the core topic of discussion, “This session promises to bring diverse viewpoints, and across practices shaping museums today. We are going to talk about making and running museums, the ways in which various narratives are collected and retold, how museums build communities. We will also discuss the future of museums, and how the mandate of museums continues to evolve from repositories of the past to institutions that look into the future.”
