As part of Culture Central’s project development support within the Cultivate Heritage programme, we will deliver an informational webinar highlighting one of The National Lottery Heritage Fund’s investment principles 'Inclusion, Access and Participation’. The session will encourage organisations to hold this principle as a high priority in the development of their heritage project.
The webinar will explore:
Creative approaches to heritage and feature presenters and case studies demonstrating good practice approaches to ‘Inclusion’ creative partnerships and collaborations.
Access – Approaches to make heritage projects more accessible to D(d)eaf, disabled and neurodivergent audiences, staff and volunteers.
Participation – Share tips and strategies for meaningful community engagement and attracting diverse audiences, and an overview of the principles of project co-design/co-production.
Our guest speakers will include:
Phoebe Gilmore – Public Programme Development Manager, Moseley Road Baths – will be sharing a case study on MRB’s creative programming approach to heritage, with an emphasis on partnerships and collaborations for inclusive engagement.
Stephanie Tyrrell - Head of Arts at Sense – will be presenting on various approaches to make heritage projects more accessible to D(d)eaf, disabled and neurodivergent audiences, staff and volunteers and highlighting the fundamentals of accessibility and the key steps to engagement and support.
Paul Warwick – Co-Artistic Director at China Plate - will share how their Birmingham 2022 Festival heritage project ‘To the Streets’ Production, embedded the principles of co-creation/design for community engagement and participation.
