Still time to sign up for @MuseumsAssoc Careers Programme session, Career Crossroads this coming Monday at 10am.

Huge thanks to the MA for their sector support in Wales during this challenging time. As a one off for this Programme you can join even if you aren’t a member 🙌

[Ffion Fielding @FfionFielding]

📢 Calling Welsh museum people .. these sessions, presented by @TamsinRussell are designed specifically for the workforce here in Wales. A chance to reflect, regroup, and take charge of a situation that can sometimes feel beyond our control. First session 10am Monday! Pls share!

[Ffion Fielding @FfionFielding]

So when p'ple ask about the value of heritage, or the impact it can have, or why it's important..Still can't quite believe this is where this project has got to!Taking inspiration from our past only happens when we know what it is, and that takes people, resources and dedication!

[Ffion Fielding @FfionFielding]

we are marvellous, to be fair 😂. But to reiterate...please get in touch / cysylltwch am fwy o fanylion.

[Steph Burge @Steffiburge]

Still time to apply! A great career development opportunity, a chance to see a different perspective on the sector & to actively support the needs of our amazing sector colleagues. Added bonus: you get to work with me & @FfionFielding - If you fancy a chat about the role DM me

@GemmaEsvelt @MuseumsAssoc Only just seen this, you should have said. Penblwydd Hapus!!!

[Steph Burge @Steffiburge]

@PipdPip @MuseumsAssoc I’m not sure this counts as messing up. This sounds like an achievement. It’s all about the lens you look at it through!

[Steph Burge @Steffiburge]

Here’s the details of todays informal meet up @MuseumsAssoc #Museums2023 :

Wales MA Members meet up 10.45am break. Meet at the MA Hub.

I’ve tried to reach out to as many people as I can but if you meet anyone from Wales invite them along - the more the merrier!

Diolch

Steph

[Tamsin Russell @TamsinRussell]

Great to hear about all of the workforce programmes @MuseumsAssoc. We have recently launched a new programme of #Wellbeing workshops for those with a duty of care. These start in 2024. Expressions of Interest are now open - to find out more visit our website. #Museums2023

[Steph Burge @Steffiburge]

You can find the MA hub opposite the bottom of the stairs.

[Ffion Fielding @FfionFielding]

Getting serious conference envy, as I'll be missing #museums23 @MuseumsAssoc conference this year! @Steffiburge is your Welsh rep in situ this year, and I know she's keen to hear from Welsh delegates to arrange a meet up and a natter!

[Steph Burge @Steffiburge]

Traveling up early to @MuseumsAssoc #Museums2023 today.

If you’re attending from Wales drop me a message and I’ll keep you updated on plans for an informal Wales Members meet up at some point on during one of the breaks on day 1 (7/11/23).

If you see me say Hi! 👋

So lush to be a tiny part of making this happen. Huge shoutout to @ksroka4 & the Dowlais Visual Arts group for their hard work organising the event. It was wonderful to see their beautiful art inspired by @AmgueddfaCymru collections & to chat about Merthyr with those that came.

[Amgueddfa Cymru | Museum Wales @AmgueddfaCymru]

On Saturday we took Heinz Koppel's painting Merthyr Blues back to Merthyr for a celebration event organised by the Dowlais Visual Arts Group as part of the Valleys Re-told Project

We were delighted to be joined by Heinz's daughter, Ruth, and the Mayor of Merthyr Tydfil

[Steph Burge @Steffiburge]

Had a sneak peak at this yesterday when I was @LlantarnamGrnge for a board meeting. It’s stunning ✨

If you’re looking for a retreat away from all the 👑 malarkey, why not nourish your soul with some art instead? 🎨

Opening event this Saturday 12-2pm. Everybody welcome 💕
