- Strategies to Create Inclusivity in Established or New Experiences
Strategies to Create Inclusivity in Established or New Experiences Friday, November 8, 2024 12 - 1:30 PM EST Over the last several years, with the shifting needs and expectations of an increasingly diverse audience, the panelists have developed strategic approaches to developing more inclusive and engaging experiences for a wider audience. These strategies are focused on membership, education programs, renovations to existing exhibits, designing inclusivity into new exhibits, limited budget exhibits and space programming. The Children's Museum at Saratoga will be the primary example plus examples from outside the museum field that apply to museum challenges. This webinar will be beneficial for anyone in the midst of or beginning any size program, exhibit or museum building project. |
