Bite-sized breakfast chats! Thursdays at 10am, The Wolfsonian Public Humanities Lab (WPHL) is in conversation with cultural figures in Miami, across the nation, and around the globe to discuss how they are coping, creating, and projecting their futures. After taking in a 10-minute live interview over your morning mug, join a Q&A to have your pressing questions answered by thought leaders who are adapting the arts experience for the COVID-19 era.

On July 16, WPHL director Rebecca Friedman continues the Coffee & Conversations Season 2 theme of "Museums and Histories of Anti-Blackness" by speaking with Vizcaya Museum and Gardens' Joel Hoffman, executive director and CEO, and Wendy Wolf, deputy director of learning and community engagement, about how museums are working to reverse racism in cultural institutions.

Organized by The Wolfsonian Public Humanities Lab.
