Training and events
Collections Documentation : Inventory
A bitesize online session, exploring the management and documentation involved in the acquisition of objects, using Spectrum 5.0 procedures as a framework.
How do you manage objects coming into your organisation? Do you have problems with unsolicited donations and what do you do with the stuff you don’t want? How can a clear collections development policy help your organisation? What should you consider in acquisition-related decision-making?
East Riding & Northern Lincolnshire Museum Forum
All museums have lost income in the past two years, so we’ll explore ideas for commercial activity. How do you strike a balance between delivering your museum’s core purpose and running events that make a profit? We’ll hear from some museums that run commercial events to support their core purpose, and reflect on how to apply that. How do museums choose, develop and run their commercial activities and events, and what top tips will you take away?
West Yorkshire Museum Forum
Developing school and family audiences
Making our museums places that school and families want to visit is a key challenge. We’ll hear from a range of museums about what they’ve been doing, and gain some ideas about what you could do at your museum.
North Yorkshire Museum Forum
Our aim for museum forums in 2022 is to create “a professional day out” – a chance to catch up with your museum colleagues in the region, visit an interesting venue, get the most out of being at a site, hear some interesting case studies – and really to enjoy being out in a different museum with different colleagues!
