Now - perhaps more than ever - is a moment for the museum
sector to look outwards and see the opportunities for collaboration.
At a time when the sector's governance is being
re-shaped, the funding landscape re-formed and individual services and
institutions restructured, the drive for joint ventures and partnership have
become more relevant than ever. In particular it is co-operation with the
wider arts sector and with the commercial world that seem to demand attention
and offer exciting possibilities for everyone.
Alert to this, Culture24 have brought together
professionals from across the creative industries to reflect upon and share
their experience of working digitally with cultural sector partners. Through a
series of roundtable discussions, this day-long meeting will explore some of
the evolving models for online collaboration and discuss the existing and
perceived barriers and divisions between different sectors and the
public/private worlds.
Those in conversation will include:
Andrew Nairne: Executive Director, Arts, Arts Council
England
Gill Johnson: Director, Broadcasting & Digital, Arts
Council England
Honor Harger, Director Lighthouse
Kevin Bacon, Digital Development Officer, The Royal
Pavilion and Museums, Brighton & Hove
