About this event
This training webinar will be led by Susan Langford, Director/Founder of Magic Me, which has pioneered intergenerational arts activities in the UK since 1989.
Susan will draw on Magic Me’s experiences of intergenerational projects with families and community groups in east London, run in partnership with cultural collections including Hackney Museum, Historic Royal Palaces: Tower of London, V&A Museum of Childhood and The Women’s Library.
We will also hear from National Museums Liverpool about their ‘When I was little’ intergenerational resource.
The session will help delegates to:
- think about different models of intergenerational interactions with a variety of family and community groups
- find out about some of the practicalities and principles that can support positive intergenerational interactions
- explore how to design activities and questions which are inclusive for everyone in a mixed age group.
Take a look at the full schedule.
This training event will be delivered virtually on Zoom over one half-day session (two hours and 30 minutes with a short break).
