This talk explores the importance of co-curation and community-led approaches in reshaping how Irish Traveller history is represented in national collections. It examines past exclusions, challenges dominant narratives, and highlights efforts to ensure authentic, meaningful inclusion of Traveller heritage in Ireland’s cultural institutions.
