Book your place for our upcoming MDY Museum Forums
It was great to meet so many of you at our forums in February and March, and to engage in such lively discussions and inspiring museum visits. We have all felt the benefit of meeting in person, getting out to different places – and connecting with colleagues over a hot drink and delicious bite of lunch!
Bookings are now open for our second round of forums in May and June. Please book early so that we can get all arrangements in place for you.
- South Yorkshire Forum – Wednesday 10th May at Clifton Park Museum
- West Yorkshire Forum – Wednesday 7th June at Leeds University Library Galleries
- North Yorkshire Forum – Thursday 22nd June at Dales Countryside Museum
- East Riding Northern Lincolnshire Forum – Wednesday 28th June at Hornsea Museum
We will keep the focus on “a professional day out” – a chance to catch up with your museum colleagues, get the most out of being at a different and interesting museum, hear some thought-provoking case studies – and gain some fresh thinking and healthy challenge!
Forums usually start with tea and coffee from 10am and introductions from 10:30am. A delicious, complimentary lunch is provided, followed by afternoon refreshments. Meetings usually finish around 3:30-4pm.
Every forum will involve a chance to view and discuss at least one aspect of the host site, hear short case studies from different speakers, and share brief updates with colleagues.
If you would like to speak about your work at a Forum, please get in touch with Victoria: victoria.smith@ymt.org.uk
Please note that bookings will close one week before the event so that we can confirm catering and access requirements.
