On Feb. 5, 2014, friends, colleagues, and some new acquaintances met at the Gallery Cabaret in Chicago for the very first That Belongs in a Museum. Stories were shared, precious objects were shown, and we collected photographs and audio recordings from this and subsequent events. After some thought, we started to see our event as a special kind of exhibit; the objects were only “exhibited” for a few minutes each, and each person who spoke during the event was a curator for the time they told their story.

This site houses the collection of catalogs from our events, and you can view all of them here.
