Hello everyone, I’m Ellen the Khadija Saye Photography Fellow at LTM. I’m excited to be taking over the twitter today to share my method of sketch booking for Creativity and Wellbeing week. #CREATEWELL2020

Hi I'm Christopher and I'm a Young Freelancer at London Transport Museum and I'm here to tell you how my weird obsession with strategy games is helping me stay creative in this lockdown. #CREATEWELL2020

[LTMuseum Youth @ltmuseumyouth]

I have really enjoyed doing this during lockdown as I get to spend time with my friends while doing something creative. There are lots of videos available on Youtube that you can follow e.g. life-drawing classes, Bob Ross’s paintings. Whatever you like!

[LTMuseum Youth @ltmuseumyouth]

Hi everyone, it’s @veronicasarms here. I’m one of the Young Freelancers at @ltmuseum. During lockdown I have been missing hanging out with my friends. So, we have been doing a Zoom art club together, where we follow a tutorial and draw or paint together.

We have detected #turtle tracks around some of our study islands in the Indian Ocean from 90m! Going to have a go at estimating the size of these lovely ladies and comparing our methods with the ground-truthing/ island survey which was done at the same time as the flight 🐢

Loving all the museum's finding ways to share collections with us @kidsinmuseums @museumsetc @TeensInMuseums @britishlibrary @MigrationUK @MuseumofLondon

...while i'm on the subject, I like it because of the spoon thing. I couldn't do a single one of the physical tests, but would smash all the mental ones. #Spoonies are more strategic, more mentally tough and more resilient than squaddies. #SoSueMe

Thinking about applying to become one of our new #NGYoungProducers? You haven't got long, applications close tomorrow: https://t.co/WQy4ocevrI

[John Tanner @HistoryJT]

Sounds fantastic - sorry, that honestly wasn’t deliberate! We’ve got teenagers working with an amazing artist creating a soundscape at the mo, combining their singing, noises of the New Colliery dig, clattery clunk of the beam engine, and more. Can’t wait to hear it!

[Science Gallery International @ScienceGallery]

All systems go here as we prep for the second #SGYouthSymposium tomorrow. Delighted to have @SciGalleryLon hosting us in their beautiful building, & so looking forward to meeting the young participants joining us from around the world to tackle some exciting challenges together.
