Projects: National Museum of Mexican Art

Capacity Building

Viewed from above, four people cluster around an Alebrije, a brightly colored Mexican folk art paper maché sculpture of a fantastical creature. Sina Bahram, a Persian man bends forward touching the Alebrije's blue horned head and talons, his long white cane tucked under his arm. The Alebrije is about the size of a cat and and looks like a dragon or lizard with a striped tail, wings, bulging eyes, and white horns. Robin Marquis, a white non binary femme, stands with one knee perched on their bedazzled rollator, typing into their phone, looking at the person mostly out of frame who is holding the Alebrije. In the background, Sara Mikail, a white woman looks on smiling. The gallery has bright red walls and blonde wooden floors.

National Museum of Mexican Art

PAC worked with the National Museum of Mexican Art on “Arte for All: Accessibility at NMMA”, a multi-year capacity-building initiative that embedded inclusive design into museum operations through staff training, advisory groups, roadmapping, and sustainable accessibility workflows.
