Final call for this session tomorrow 👇
Many museums offer play for children - but how creative, experimental and playful are we in our work - as adult professionals?

Join us to explore how playful approaches might open up ideas and creativity in our organisations, and with our communities.

Really struck me recently that the children's sections of many museums are more creative, with more to learn, even for people who have a good foundation, than the adult sections
