Decolonisation + Democratisation is a national conference exploring how
heritage and arts organisations are engaging and sharing ownership with
communities.
Have you got big ideas about how to transform the face of heritage
and the arts? Are there some simple steps to changing how we think about and
work with communities that can have significant impacts?
If so, we want to hear from you. We are looking for submissions from
all career levels and all sizes of organisation.
We are particularly keen to hear examples of:
· Museums working in partnership,
especially ones involving organisations/ individuals outside of the cultural
sector
· Museums being used for
non-traditional activities
· Ways of enhancing collections
knowledge through partnership work
· “Failures” as well as success
stories, which can help others learn
When: Thursday 10th September, 2020
Where: Colchester Castle, Essex
Where presentations involve community partners, we would love to hear
from both parties and have bursaries to support community participation.
If you are unable to get to Colchester in person, please do still get in
touch as we would love to explore remote contributions, such as via Skype.
We are looking for contributions for:
· Workshop activities (30 mins)
· Short presentations (20 mins)
If you have something to share, we’d love to hear from you. Email us
with:
· Name(s) and contact details,
including organisation
· Summary and title of your idea (no
more than 300 words), including structure
· What you expect delegates to take
away from your session
Submissions to be emailed to Ben.Paites
@colchester.gov.uk by 9am on Monday 30th March. All submissions will be considered
and we shall inform successful applicants by Friday 24th April. All presenters will
receive free entry to the conference. (NB: the cost for delegates will be £25
for the day).
