Hello everyone, I wanted to highlight a few museum history related things for those of you interested in the 'histories' part of 'histories and futures' (not that they are particularly separate of course!).
I'm co-editor of Museum History Journal and would be super interested to hear from anyone with an article, a yen to review articles, or suggestions of books to review.
Please also consider joining the Museums and Galleries History Group and look out for our postponed conference on Museum Networks next year!
Finally, the edited volume from MGHG's last conference is forthcoming (at eye-watering Routledge prices sadly) - please do look out for it!
Dear Kate Hill,
thank you very much for these precious information, I am very interested in the activities you highlight (the participartion in the Journal and in the Group) and will contact you soon. Best regards,
Elena Montanari
Hello Kate,
Many thanks for mentioning the book - looking forward to reading it (hopefully at a discount price 🤔 ).
I fondly remember the last MGHG's conference - great debates and some very interesting feedbacks for my research. Can't wait for the next one!
See you soon (virtually),
Anna
Hi Anna! - I see you were also presenting at ACHS - it's clearly online conference season!
Kate
Hi Kate,
Thank you so much for sharing this, I will join the Museum and Galleries History Group, and I will defiantly be signing up for the Museum Networks conference! Had I known about the conference before I would have submitted a paper, as I am currently looking into design networks, but as you can imagine, I have been keeping busy.
Kate
Hi Kate
