Dear colleagues, We are living in cities which are becoming more culturally and linguistically diverse through migration. In 2015 CAMOC, in its special 10th year anniversary, decided to focus on migration and its representation in city museums, first by dedicating its annual conference on the theme and now by partnering with the Open Museum, Glasgow to organise a special interactive workshop. The workshop will explore how cities are shaped by arriving communities and how these communities can get involved in museum work and be assets and real stakeholders of the museum through reflecting, collecting, safeguarding and disseminating their stories and life experiences. Through the opportunity to meet and discuss with people involved in live projects, the workshop will enable understanding of the step-by-step process of project development, ethical considerations, overcoming challenges and measuring impact. The programme will be hosted by the Open Museum, Glasgow Museum’s community outreach team and Glasgow Museum’s migration forum – a mix of museum staff, artists, researchers and voluntary organisations, with their own personal and professional connections to the theme of migration. A rich mix of performances, pop up events, speakers and project visits will inspire honest discussion and reflections which will enable key principles to be drawn out and shared. In the link below, you will find more details about the workshop, grant opportunities and practical information about travel and accommodation in Glasgow. http://network.icom.museum/fileadmin/user_upload/minisites/camoc/CAMOC_GLASGOW_1.pdf *Don’t miss the opportunity to participate in this challenging workshop!* For further details you can contact: Marlen Mouliou [log in to unmask] (CAMOC Chair) Chris Jamieson [log in to unmask] (Glasgow Museums) Crawford McGugan [log in to unmask] (Glasgow Museums) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Change ICOM-L subscription options, unsubscribe, and search the archives at: http://home.ease.lsoft.com/archives/icom-l.html
