Contemporary Collecting Workshop
10.40am-3pm
More and more, museums are thinking about how we collect contemporary culture; how do we better reflect current events and issues, and how do we represent our own communities within our collections?
In partnership with the Contemporary Collecting Group, we will be hosting a workshop focusing on some key themes relating to contemporary collecting, as well as looking at examples of best practice and the challenges that we all face in developing contemporary collecting practice.
This event is open to all heritage professionals and volunteers who are interested in developing their own practice around contemporary collecting, or who would simply like to learn a bit more about what it actually is!
Places are free, but limited so please contact gabrielle.heffernan@tulliehouse.org if you would like to attend, or for more information.
