At the National Humanities Conference in Rhode Island, @BeingHumanFest spoke on inclusive audience participation with humanities research.
The Conference was closed by the Langston Hughes Community Poetry Reading, who celebrate the writer's contributions to American culture.
At Making History @BeingHumanFest Day we were joined by fab artist @btaylorbeales & with over 100 visitors we co-created an incredible Roman wall art installation with graffiti. We'll be putting this on display @CAERHeritage, stunning photos by @Camerafreakuk ✊️ @cardiffuni
And that's a wrap on #BeingHuman2024! A huge thank you to everyone who has made 230+ free events happen over the last 10 days.
We've loved seeing all the fantastic work bringing diverse humanities research to life in creative ways, right across the UK. More highlights soon!

On the last day of the @BeingHumanFest, it was a privilege to co-facilitate a workshop with @GiorgosTsiris and @anthonyschrag at @StColumbas. Thanks to the attendees with whom we reflected and discussed life and death - respectfully storying and obituating. "To be continued."
