The Curator’s Attic explores the stories behind the objects that shape our lives. I'm your host, Jon West-Bey, and I’m a Curator and Museologist, and in this podcast, we'll explore the surprising stories hidden within everyday objects. Join me as we uncover the history, the artistry, and the human connection woven into the fabric of our material world.

OPO The Teacup featuring Nia Iman Smith
We're kicking off an exciting new segment called OPO: Other People's Objects! This idea sprang from the iconic 1991 Naughty by Nature hit, "O.P.P.". While we usually dive into items from my own collection, OPO will explore the fascinating stories behind objects belonging to others.
For our inaugural OPO feature, I'm thrilled to chat with a dear friend and colleague. She'll be sharing a cherished object deeply connected to her family history and her incredible work as an ethnomusicologist. You won't want to miss the unique insights and personal narratives this new segment promises to bring!
