Photographic Arts Council Los Angeles, with the support of Eastman Museum Los Angeles, presents Women Curators, the final event in its Year of the Woman series, on Monday, March 2, 2026, at 7 p.m. at Beverly Hills Public Library.
This interactive discussion will invite audience participation to examine the role of curators within the broader visual arts ecosystem and their influence on the development, visibility and legacy of artists' work.
The panel brings together an intergenerational group of curators at different stages of their careers. Sarah Greenough, Emilia Mickevicius and Britt Salvesen will join moderator Allison Pappas for a conversation examining the evolving role of curatorial practice in photography over the past four decades.

Mickevicius is the Norton Family Assistant Curator of Photography, a joint appointment between the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona and Phoenix Art Museum. Salvesen is curator and head of the Wallis Annenberg Photography Department and the Prints and Drawings Departments at LACMA. Pappas is the Jane P. Watkins Assistant Curator of Photography at the Morgan Library & Museum.
The event concludes PAC LA's Year of the Woman series, honoring the powerful women who helped shape the organization's first decade. These flagship events are made possible with meaningful sponsorship from Eastman Museum LA.
