@annahamiltonart Sorry if anyone has made you feel bad. I ordered something for a birthday & it has passed - but hey the same person will have a birthday next year & they can just have it then! 🙃 It’s absolutely no big deal & very unfair if anyone is giving you grief over it given the situation

[Laura Hughes @LauraMuseums]

@SimonIanBrown @ace_midlands Yay, that sounds perfect! Huge congratulations 🥳

[Laura Hughes @LauraMuseums]

@annahamiltonart Your art is really lovely 💕 just ordered a couple of bits but there is absolutely no rush to get them to me as don’t need them for another month (birthday gifts for someone)

@lfcrossley @HeritageFundUK @CloreLeadership How exciting! Congratulations 👏🏻🤩

Two excellent sessions:

Dom Dwight @YorkshireTea discussed how to listen to & engage audiences

Dr Ron Evans explained #emotion & #audiencebehaviour & how he applies scientific processes to arts marketing research

Fab insights into connecting with audiences differently #AMAConf

@curatoreducator @MusDevEM @StanwickLakes @HeritageFundUK It was great! Apparently the Northants Guild of Spinners Weavers and Dyers meet at Stanwick lakes every Wednesday. They had other crafts there like basket weaving as well… I was told there will be some workshops coming soon

[Laura Hughes @LauraMuseums]

Wonderful to represent @MusDevEM at @StanwickLakes for the #NorthamptonshireHeritageForum meeting this evening, with a chance to meet some traditional crafters & see some of the @HeritageFundUK funded projects both completed & in planning stages

[Laura Hughes @LauraMuseums]

@museumimp @MusDevEM @StanwickLakes @HeritageFundUK Sadly not 😅 fabulous isn’t it?! I did spin and make a little woolen bracelet, though with the help of the Northants Guild of Spinners!
