Erin Bernard

Erin Bernard feels strongly that access matters and that all spaces are museums and galleries if we just treat them as they are. She believes the Philadelphia Public History Truck is one path to understanding access issues in history museums and cultural spaces. She views the History Truck as an intervention within two spaces–within Philadelphia neighborhoods where people are not typically listened to or challenged to be authorities of their own story and within the academy where marginalized voices and everyday urban concerns are often overlooked.
