sciZmic science in collections workshops
Museums and science centres across the UK are hosting a series of skills
workshops for anyone who would like to include more science in their
programming.
Each 2-day workshop examines how museums and art galleries can use
science as a topic in family programming. It is designed for all staff
who develop or deliver family programming.
Following the workshop, each participant will be appointed a mentor.
They can contact or meet with them to help them develop further
science-related programming.
