Apologies for cross posting Book now for Reach Out: Engaging Younger Audiences with Museums - 6 December 2023 Engaging young audiences is no easy task for museums, but the rise of participatory practice has led many museums to build strong relationships with youth communities, particularly those from marginalised backgrounds, and ensure their voices are accurately represented in institutions. This event offers practical advice and case studies that demonstrate how museums can build equitable and sustainable relationships with underserved audiences such as teenagers and young adults, which centre their voices and wellbeing. Prices for this one-day conference start from as little as £30. Speakers include: Dhikshana Turakhia Pering, Chair Alison Bowyer, Executive Director, Kids in Museums Su Hepburn, Head of Learning and Engagement, Brighton Museums Harvinder Bahra, Community Engagement Manager, Chiswick House & Gardens Jennifer Keenan, Learning and Access Curator, Kelvingrove Museum Susie Ironside, Visitor Studies Curator, Kelvingrove Museum Oisín Kenny, Apollo Fellow, National Gallery of Ireland Shereese Peters-Valton, Schools and Teachers Coordinator, University of Cambridge Museums Hannah Lee-Chalk, Learning Manager, Manchester Museum Jennie Aspinall, Primary Learning Co-ordinator, Manchester Museum Katherine Hunter, Learning Officer, London Transport Museum Zoe Lake Thomas, Learning Officer: Young People, London Transport Museum Find out more and view the programme here<https://www.museumsassociation.org/events/reach-out-engaging-younger-audiences-with-museums/> Book your place here<https://profile.museumsassociation.org/Eventbooking/?event=EVE100763> Inclusive event places The Benevolent Fund will provide five free places to this event to individual members who face barriers due to ethnicity, disability, socio-economic background, and gender identity or sexual orientation (LGBTQ).
