About
Bio (continued from Home page)
In 2020 Britt was laid off after having devoted herself for many years to her museum career. After rallying co-workers, friends, and family to join her in a peaceful protest of the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police, inspiring colleagues to recognize, call out, and commit to efforts to dismantle organizational bias, Britt soon found herself out of job. Though devastated and partly surprised by the irony, Britt powered through and began to align with professionals across the country who were equally dedicated to kicking down the doors of bias and intolerance, especially in the museum world.
As a freelance museum professional and proud co-founder of Agate Creatives - an organization committed to creating revolutionary, non-traditional museum-like experiences surrounding antiracism and social justice - Britt is more devoted than ever to providing the utmost services for museums and community based organizations that desire to prioritize DEIA from their internal relations to the projects they produce for the public.
