Session 1: Diverse audiences & social inclusion
Part I: Diverse audiences and social inclusion
Today’s museum audiences are highly diverse: intergenerational, transcultural, from a variety of social backgrounds, and with very individual physical and cognitive abilities. As keepers of cultural heritage, museums are responsible for providing cultural education to everyone. Yet diverse types of audiences require exhibits and educational programs designed to fit their specific needs. Meet three different European institutions and their extraordinary approaches to being all inclusive.
Part II: Diverse audiences and social inclusion
How are children’s museums adapting to the needs of their community?
Experiences from across the pond have been collected by our friends from ACM. Four speakers from the USA, South America and Africa will discuss how their museums have engaged their communities around issues of social and cultural inclusion, with the intention of creating safe and necessary places for children and families.
