Health and Museums conference
I'm currently working with the UK Medical Collections Group, led by the Thackray Medical Museum i Leeds, on an Arts Council-funded project to evidence and promote museums' impact on health outcomes for participants. The network is funding two pilot projects which are working with Helen Chatterjee at University College, London to test an evaluation tookit Helen and her colleagues have been developing to test the health benefits of museum interactions. On March 5 the Thackray Museum is holding a conference to discuss the outcomes of the research and to address how museums can fundraise for and get involved in further work with healthcare providers.
The conference flyer is available here (pdf download). Please contact conference@thackraymuseum.org for further information and to book a place.
