Carrying the beautiful message of “A Museum Where Cultures Connect,” Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology was a home for one of the Global Lives Project exhibits from October 24th, 2017 to May 31st, 2018. The museum resonates strongly with Global Lives’ mission on human empathy and global connections. The exhibit featured 24-hour videos of 20 individuals around the world, shown across 4 LED screens placed side-by-side behind the glass display. On Thursday, October 26th, the Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology hosted a talk by Jason Price, an anthropology Ph.D. candidate at Berkeley who directed a Global Lives video shoot in Malawi. Price and founder David Harris discussed the relationship between the Global Lives Project and the fields of anthropology, ethnographic film, documentary, art, and education. The event was free with museum admission.
