Evaluation in Action Workshop with SM&AG

Funded via ACE National Portfolio funding, Creative consultants Barker Langham have worked with the team at Shrewsbury Museum & Art Gallery (SM&AG), to conduct an extensive community consultation and develop a radical new interpretive masterplan for the museum. The reimagined museum will create many more opportunities for communities to engage with the buildings and collections, via co-created displays, volunteering, learning programmes and creative activities.

SM&AG's new, temporary Deep History exhibition, Sun and Fire – Life and Death at the Dawn of History, opening at the museum in November 2024 offers an opportunity to trial some of the themes and concepts we may wish to explore in a reimagined museum and to gather essential feedback.

Join Culture & Heritage Development Manager, Fay Bailey, and Heritage Evaluation Consultant, Kate Rodenhust for a FREE half day workshop to help you define and refine your own evaluation project. You’ll have an opportunity to tour the exhibition and experience the range of evaluation methods on offer.
