Working with national museums: partnership and collaboration 7 Dec 2016

It can sometimes be difficult to find the right person to contact in a national museum if you want to talk about working in partnership or collaborating in some way. NMDC has therefore produced a leaflet including all the contact details of the national museums' Heads of Partnerships (or equivalent) and details of some case studies to act as inspiration. The leaflet will live on the Promoting Partnerships page of the NMDC website and will be updated when personnel change. Paper copies were distributed in each of the Conference bags at the MA Conference. Working with national museums   Promoting partnerships

To coincide with the publication of the leaflet, NMDC hosted a networking event at the MA Conference to provide the opportunity for delegates to meet national museums' Heads of Partnerships and discuss ideas for projects or collaboration. The event was well attended and NMDC will continue to support museum partnership and collaboration through our involvement in the Touring Exhibitions Group's Preparing to Borrow in 2017.
