Carnival4David

Curated by Nika Dubrovsky

At the core of Museum of Care and David Graeber Institute is the idea of Carnival. The Museum of Care emerged from the Carnival4David, held in David’s memory, that took place on October 11, 2020 in 250 sites around the world. The carnival tradition was followed by DGI, which is building the faculty of Carnival in St. Vincent and Grenadines.

Our first Carnival in 2020 was a celebration of David Graeber’s life.

In 2021 together with friends from the Museum of Care, clown Leo Bassi, Madrid activists, members of the Zapatista movement, and the Church of Stop Shopping, we held Carnival4David in Madrid in 2021.

In 2022, the Museum of Care organized a Carnival in Rowley Way London on 29 of November to mark an informal launch of the David Graeber Institute.

In 2023 we set up a Pirate Carnival in Roley Way. 

In 2024 we invite everyone to the Discussion Circles of DGI in Saint Vincent and Grenadines: Living the Carnivalesque Way
