he value of services for children and young people

Thursday 2 July
 1 – 4pm
 Museum of London, Docklands
 The fourth in our series of free events that interrogate and discuss Arts Council England’s five goals, this time we look into Goal 5 – the provision of high-quality arts and cultural learning experiences for, by and with children and young people.
 Working with children and young people is something that all museums do, so this event will explore the strategic direction and ‘big picture’ aims of this kind of work – and how individual museum’s programmes can be developed with these aims in mind.
