Bethany Tabor is a writer, curator, and public engagement specialist based in Albuquerque, New Mexico working for the New Mexico Humanities Council. Prior to moving to Albuquerque, Bethany spent five years in New York City working in the nonprofit arts sector. Her work promotes community engagement through a multi-disciplinary approach to public programming. She has organized and produced large and small scale public programs ranging from roundtable discussions to site-specific performances at New York City cultural institutions including The Trust for Governors Island and The Green-Wood Cemetery. Her scholarly work centers around differing cultural attitudes toward death and dying; she is most interested in the recent cultural shifts in ritualization and memorialization in the West.
