As a Bradfordian who lives here but works nationally, it's so inspiring and important to see incredible artwork in display right here in Lister Park that connects with local communities. Well done to all involved for getting it here! 🎉💕

Can't be in Salford without a quick visit to Imperial War Museum North. Absolutely stunning exhibition 'Chila Welcomes You' and a reminder of some of the thought provoking exhibits in the main gallery #MuseumEd

Reflecting on day one of #AccessibleMuseums Conference @leedsmuseums.bsky.social - as well as filling up my cup with wonderful people, it feels like a really solutions focused conference - we know it's rubbish out there but let's work together with ways to make it better! Looking forward to 2moro 😀

Tomorrow marks my one year with GEM🎉
A challenging year personally due to health reasons, but career wise one of the best - working with a brilliant, supportive and inspiring team and connecting more with #MusEd community! Also now getting to be a museum mum 😍
Looking forward to what 2025 brings!
