Museum as Muck AGM

The British Museum works in collaboration with an extensive partnership of organisations across the UK to ensure its collection and knowledge are shared with the broadest audience.These initiatives include Touring Exhibitions, the Portable Antiquities Scheme and outreach projects, which contribute to the enjoyment and sharing of culture around the country and reach diverse communities in rural and urban locations.We also provide training and skills development for sector professionals through our Knowledge Share Programme, for the public through the Portable Antiquities Scheme and for young people through our programme of paid traineeships.For more information of National Programmes at the British Museum:https://www.britishmuseum.org/our-work/national

British Museum National Programmes

Do you work in a museum or gallery in the UK? Do you identify as working class? 
Museum as Muck is partnering with the British Museum National Programmes team to host the first Muckers' Annual General Meeting, and we warmly invite you to come along.
Museum as Muck is a network for working class museum and gallery professionals. It acts as a peer support group, a place to share experiences and frustrations, and a platform for change by making connections across the sector, sharing content and hosting conversations about working class representation in the museums and galleries workforce.
This will be the first Muckers' AGM and the aim is to bring together as many working class museum and gallery professionals as possible. We want to consult fellow Muckers about what our priorities should be and create stronger links across the UK.

<H2>Information for attendees</H2>
This event is open to anyone working in or with museums and galleries who identifies as working class - whether you are an existing Museum as Muck member or a newcomer wishing to find out more. Tickets are free but booking is essential. 
Defining class can be difficult but for the purposes of this network, working class is a catch-all term for coming from a background with low social, economic and cultural capital. 
We are keen to reach a UK-wide audience so a limited number of travel bursaries are available for those who would otherwise be unable to attend. These will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. If you would like to request one, please email <A HREF="mailto:UKPartnerships@britishmuseum.org" TARGET="_blank" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">UKPartnerships@britishmuseum.org</A> once you have booked your ticket, letting us know why attending the event will be beneficial, and what support you need.
