Challenging Conversations

23 May 2019 @ 10:30 - 13:00

Free

Challenging Conversations – how to have a conversation about a difficult subject well, a starting point for arts and culture professionals to be bold and provocative in telling unsafe stories.

Difficult stories such as physical and sexual abuse, war, poverty, slavery, illness, discrimination and death are present throughout our museums, galleries, heritage sites and arts projects.

We are a group of heritage education leaders in the West Midlands who will be sharing our research into how to teach challenging and difficult subjects to children and young people in galleries, museums, heritage sites and as part of arts projects.

Join us to hear about the research and have an opportunity to discuss the findings with colleagues from across the cultural sector.

Refreshments provided.

Pay & Display parking is available on site.
