Meet this year’s Student Curators,
Every school year, GLAM hosts an exhibition organized by our student curator team. This group is responsible for the acquisitions, writing, and researching of artworks and objects that fit the annual exhibition theme. For the 2024-2025 cohort, the curator team is planning an exhibit surrounding “the house and the home,”— They aim to consider the following questions:
How is home constructed through material and space?
How is home created, re-created, and complicated through the experience of migration and the practices of diaspora adaptations?
How are our understandings of home influenced by childhood experiences, nostalgia, and material memory?
How do we compare the literal destruction of the house/home (eg. due to war and conflict) to its figurative loss through migration and displacement?
Interested in submitting objects or artwork? Please let us know by completing this google form.

CO-PRESIDENT | Head of Curatorial Team
GLAM is the perfect opportunity for me as someone who is passionate about the arts, archival management, and curation! It is my hope to work in curation in the future, aiming to help make the GLAM sector more accessible and equitable as these cultural institutions are necessary in the preservation and education of histories and cultures of both the past and the present. In GLAM, you are bound to find a welcoming, supportive, and encouraging community of friends and collaborators!

CURATORIAL TEAM ADMINISTRATOR
I joined GLAM because I believe cultural institutions hold space for people to grapple with difficult histories and questions, appreciate the profoundly unifying experience of beauty, and explore the vast diversity contained in the human experience. These cultural institutions also possess enormous power in dictating what voices and stories get to be heard and appreciated by the wider public; a power that has all too often been used to further exclude those who occupy marginalized positions. I want to join GLAM because it is seeking to create more equitable cultural institutions by making space for all people to create meaning and tell their stories within them.

CURATOR
I joined GLAM in my second year because I was looking for more ways to become involved with Toronto’s art and culture industries and meet other students with similar interests as myself! I loved the sense of community I felt within the club and am so so excited to be part of everything we have planned this year!!

Florence Lu
CURATOR
I joined GLAM because I have always been a museum and gallery nerd and wanted to become more involved in the industry. I'm also a big fan of curations, from social media posts to museum exhibitions; I love putting things together and GLAM is the perfect place for this. p.s. GLAM is the warmest and loveliest club at Vic and even at UofT.

Sara Nayir
ASSISTANT CURATOR
If you've somehow stumbled upon this post, hi! I'm Sara, a second-year assistant curator with GLAM. Though it's a cliché to keep saying this, I've always consciously immersed myself in artistic spaces. GLAM—Galleries, Archives, Libraries, Museums—is one such space. Through guided tours concerned with aesthetic production and other upcoming socials, I can't wait to further connect with you all at Victoria College and our collective university community. So, if you're looking to pause and separate yourself from a hectic schedule at any point this year, come find us at one of our events!

ASSISTANT CURATOR
I joined GLAM because I have had always a passion for going to mueseums, libraries, galleries and any space really that displayed art or artistic architecture! I have always found these spaces really fasicanting and quite refreashing from the everyday mundane spaces I am typically used too (ie.Robarts) 🤣!
