History

Established by Barry Ace, Ryan Rice, Ron Noganosh, and Ahasiw Maskegon-Iskew as a not-for-profit organization in 2006, the Collective's mandate is dedicated to increasing the public profile of Aboriginal art curators and their role in protecting, fostering and extending Aboriginal arts and culture throughout North America.[1][2]

The Aboriginal Curatorial Collective supports its mandate through sponsorship of an annual conference and other professional networking opportunities, including lectures and exhibitions. Caucuses are the main instrument through which members participate in the direction of the ACC/CCA. Many of the central activities of the ACC/CCA will be determined by the priorities, participation and energy of caucuses. There is an extensive list of objects of the corporation. The establishment of caucuses by members around these objects will help determine their priority for ACC/CCA action. There are also other Aboriginal curatorial community issues that caucuses will address and that the ACC/CCA will put resources behind. Prominent First Nation artists who belong to the Collective include Robert Houle, Greg A. Hill (artist), Jaimie Isaac, and Cheryl L'Hirondelle.

gollark: Actually, that probably *is* somewhat better than what the UK does?
gollark: There's probably a significant amount of random variance in test results just per person, so basing it entirely on a test result is not ideal.
gollark: Gnobody/Turkey's, I mean.
