World Turned Upside Down: Exploring the Future of Museums
Museums Association virtual conference
The past year has redefined how we connect to our communities, care for collections and support our staff, freelancers and volunteers. This year’s Museums Association Conference will explore these changes and discuss how the sector can rise to the challenges we face.
The pandemic, the Black Lives Matter movement and the Climate Crisis have had a massive impact on society and created a critical moment for us to reflect on the future and purpose of museums.
This year’s conference will:
- Respond to new realities of the coronavirus pandemic and investigate how we can emerge from the crisis with the tools to meet the needs of our communities
- Examine the decolonisation of museums and the role the sector has in helping to address the racism, injustice and discrimination that blight our societies
- Investigate what we need to do to create inclusive, participatory and sustainable museums
- Develop the skills to advocate and effectively make the case for investment in museums
- Draw inspiration from the global museum community as we share ideas and best practice from across the globe
- Provide a platform for networks and alliances of peers to discuss and deal with the challenges ahead
- Equip attendees with the practical skills and confidence to navigate this world turned upside down
The conference is free to all the Museums Association’s individual, institutional and commercial members.

Dynamic Information for Dynamic Collections
Collections Trust Virtual Conference
This year’s Collections Trust conference explores an under-appreciated aspect of dynamic collections: dynamic information. Without information to oil the wheels, doing just about anything with collections becomes more difficult than it should be. How can we get this precious resource flowing more freely and realise the full potential of the collections we hold?
The conference will be held online over two afternoons. The event is free and for more information click here.
1 & 2 October – Dynamic Information for Dynamic Collections
