Babies in museums
Wednesday 12 March 2025, 10am-12.30pm
Do you want to learn more about how babies experience museums to help you to develop, or improve provision for this audience and their parents/carers?
About this training
This training webinar will be led by Professor Anna Franklin and Dr Alice Skelton from the Sussex Baby Lab. The Sussex Baby Lab is a team of researchers at the University of Sussex who conduct fun and friendly experiments with babies to understand how they see, think and learn.
They will be joined by Nicola Wallis from the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge and Anna Murray from National Galleries Scotland – Modern One, Edinburgh, who will talk about their work with babies and their parents/carers.
The session will help you to:
understand the importance of this work
gain an insight into how babies see, think and learn in museum spaces
think about how to develop provision for babies in your organisation
gain inspiration from case studies to take your own work forward
take away top tips to inform your practice.
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).
Who should attend?
This training is aimed at staff who work in museums, art galleries and heritage sites and are interested in either beginning to offer provision for families with babies or developing their current offer.
