Towards the end of last year, we developed a new crowd management course with the Natural History Museum. It focuses on crowd dynamics and risk for the cultural, arts and sport sectors. Could a course like this be of interest to you? Please find out more about us on our crowded spaces page and contact us with any enquiries. We’d love to hear from you! https://lnkd.in/gh3Svnh #ThursdayThrowback #crowdedspaces #crowdmanagement #crowddynamics #risk #courses #eventprofs Professor Chris Kemp

Case study alert! One of the best aspects of the AIM New Stories New Audiences grant programme has been how transformational it's been for smaller museums, in terms of organisational working AND participant outcome: https://lnkd.in/eSt2Cbbq

Conversations: Let’s Talk about Death What does talking about death reveal to us about life and the way we choose to live it? What can we share and learn from each other about different cultural traditions that honour loved ones who have passed? What is the experience like for people who work with matters of death every day? Join us in this informal gathering in a conversation café format to talk about death with like-minded learners. A list of questions similar to the ones asked above will be provided to spark curiosity and stimulate thought-provoking conversations. Participants will meet first in small breakout groups, and then share insights with the larger group. IMPORTANT: We strongly recommend that you visit the ROM exhibition, Death: Life’s Greatest Mystery, before you attend this program. The Museum opens at 10 AM, and your Conversations ticket includes same-day admission to the exhibition. For more information, please visit the ROM website at: https://lnkd.in/gJw9evEp

📣 Every museum should have a youth panel 📣 Having a youth panel or youth group in your museum can bring huge benefits to everyone involved, including... 💬 Giving young people a voice within your museum, 🤝 Highlighting your organisation's commitment to them as an audience, 💡 The opportunity for young people to advise on programming and co-create exhibitions, all while building their own skills and experience. We know that it might seem like a daunting process - that's why we created a resource to guide you through the process of setting up your own youth panel, step by step.

SPRING FORWARD - an Inside/Outside Retreat 28th – 31st March 2024 Dyfi Valley, Mid Wales, UK With Artists/Guides Fern Smith & Philip Ralph Spring Forward 2024 is a spacious, guided, small-group retreat intended to support an intentional decision to: ‘Step into the Light, Marking the Moment, Making an Intention.’ The retreat takes place to coincide with that special time in the UK when the clocks are turned forward one hour and we mark the start of ‘British Summer Time’. We frame the weekend as marking a Rite of Passage at this transitional time of the year. What wants to be marked and honoured in your own life. Is it a Severance or Separation? Is it liminal, transitional, Threshold time? Or are you Incorporating a new state, ideas or information into your life? We will draw on the practices of the Ojai Foundation’s ‘Way of Council’, Joanna Macy’s ‘Work That Re-connects’ and ‘The Four Shields’ teachings from The School of Lost Borders during the retreat. It is our profound intention that each participant will leave us and return to the world rested, re-invigorated and with a fresh sense of purpose. The retreat gives time to mark and witness how and where each of us are in our lives at this great time of transition and turning. There will be opportunities to share time and space with a small and supportive group: to rest; to plan; to unravel; to dream, to be... There will be quiet time alone to slow down and for solo reflection, as well as time for witnessing one another and group sharing https://lnkd.in/e7HM6wEx
