Dear all
Do you or any of your colleagues know of any good examples of how to
write text using the Ekarv technique? I know that few museums and
galleries have used it, but I can't find a decent 'how to' on the
internet.
Any help greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Hi, Jael
hope you are well and that everything is ok over at Farnley.
I took up my new post at WMDC last week and am trying to hit the ground
running! My job is to work with local communities in their libraries to
build temporary exhibitions. My post is part funded by Sure Start and
consequently some of the exhibitions have to be targeted specifically at
the under 4s.
I'm planning to visit some museums in the region that cater well for
this age group to help with my research and wondered if you could point
me in the right direction. At the moment I've got Eureka and Manchester
Art Gallery on my list as I know these both have provision for early
years children. Do you know of anywhere else that you think is
particularly good on this? It could be temporary or permanent
exhibitions - whatever!
Thanks a lot,
Erica
