In September 2014, The Hunt Museum will be hosting an international education conference exploring the importance of community engagement, museum access and culture.
The Learning Together Conference, 2014 is now accepting proposals from organisations, museums and individuals for papers, posters and presentations. We invite community organisations, museums and individuals to submit proposals for posters to be displayed at one of the three community-based workshops on Thursday 11 September 2014. Museum and cultural practitioners are invited to submit a paper to the conference that explores practical approaches to the challenges presented by reaching new or hard to reach communities, the role of museums in community development or explore one of the conference themes. We also invite community groups or individuals to present on a project on 11 September, that they delivered or participated in, either as part of City of Culture or another recent project, with the aim of sharing knowledge, and learning together and of increasing awareness of community -led initiatives.
