LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

The Association of Art Museum Curators (AAMC) and AAMC Foundation offices are in Manhattan, and our team also works remotely from Brooklyn. These locations are situated upon the unceded, seized territory of the Lenape and Canarsie peoples and benefited from the economies of enslavement and the labors of African-descended captives. We owe our existence and vitality to generations of people from around the world brought here against their will or drawn here to escape persecution and those who have lived on this land for more generations than can be counted. We pay respect to their communities past and present. This acknowledgment asks us to consider the many legacies of violence, displacement, migration, and settlement that bring us together.
