This conference looks like it will be good

Good morning MCGers!
Two things – firstly, we’re running a conference on digital cultural learning. Secondly, we’d love you to be a part of it, either as a sponsor and/or as a possible speaker in our Lightening Talks – see below for more info.
Culture24’s Connecting Collections Conference 2015 is on June 29th at the National Maritime Museum, London. The focus is cultural collections – specifically how arts and heritage educators can better reach and engage children, young people and their teachers with those collections using digital tools and channels, to support learning.
You'll get to discover and interrogate all sorts of inspiring ideas and approaches and our fantastic speakers will set you thinking with their mix of expert theory and practical advice. We'll have lots of digital stuff for you to play with and experience at first hand. Plus, you'll have plenty of time for questions, discussions and reflection with an amazing bunch of fellow delegates in a wonderful venue. Full programme details will be announced soon but in the meantime you can read about the speakers and book your place here: www.bit.ly/CCConf2015
Get involved as a sponsor: we know those of who don’t work for museums, love building professional relationships with those who do. What better way to reach out to the museum learning community then by having a profile at this conference by becoming a sponsor. We have a range of different ways you could get involved. If you are interested please contact Anra Kennedy on 01273 623 357 or [log in to unmask]
Get involved as a speaker: we’ve reserved 4 slots for 5 minute ‘lightning talks’. We’re looking for a good mix of interesting case studies or quick-fire talks on our collections and digital theme. This is your chance to share, promote and discuss your work with colleagues - we’ll ask you to take part in a panel discussion after your talk too – in a friendly environment.
To submit a proposal for a talk please email [log in to unmask] by June 7th with a brief summary of what you’d like to talk about - no more than 100 words please! We’ll let you know if you’ve got a slot by June 10th
We’ve reserved 4 cut-price tickets for our Lightning Talkers - £75 plus VAT instead of the £100 Early Bird or £125 regular price. If you buy your conference ticket before we allocate the talk slots and then you’re chosen, we’ll refund the difference.
Any questions at all please contact myself ([log in to unmask]) or Anra ([log in to unmask])
Hope to see lots of you on June 29th.
Cheers
Sejul
