  • Arts 13 Amgueddfa Cymru
    Background Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales was established by Royal Charter in 1907. The Museum receives its core funding through grant-in-aid from the Welsh Government as a Welsh Government Sponsored Body. Its Charter objective is ‘the advancement of the education of the public’ involving developing, caring for, studying and sustaining access to Wales’s national museum collections for the benefit of society in perpetuity. Amgueddfa Cymru’s Vision, published following significant internal and external discussion and consultation, is to become ‘a world class museum of learning’ and we believe that we are well on our way to delivering this ambitious commitment. For the context of this submission, it is important to note that Amgueddfa Cymru is a provider of a broad range of arts and cultural activities relating to art, history, science, music, drama, creative- writing, dance, photography and these all include elements of active participation. Through the leading role the Museum plays in this cultural and heritage provision, education, skills and tourism, we make a positive contribution to the social and economic life of Wales. With over 450,000 formal and informal education visits, Amgueddfa Cymru also provides many routes into life-long learning and training - all of which are crucial at a time of financial constraint. In response to the Committee’s questions: 1. Which groups of people participate in your organisation’s arts activities? Annually, Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales welcomes over 1.6m visits to its seven national museum sites. A wide range of groups of people participate in Amgueddfa Cymru’s arts and cultural activities, e.g.

  • Opening up the Museum
    NCK:S VÅRKONFERENSEN 2015 1 Opening Up the Museum Janice Lane Director of Learning, Exhibitions & Digital Media Amgueddfa Cymru/National Museum Wales Abstract: Amgueddfa Cymru’s strategic focus for the next five years is to establish St Fagans National History Museum as a gateway to Wales’s cultural heritage, in a £21.5 million Heritage Lottery Funded development project. In delivering, this we are embedding cultural participation, programming and interpretation as strategic areas within the redevelopment. The overarching goal for St Fagans is to achieve a culture change in sKills development and working practices in the Museum and to set new standards in bilingual interpretation. As part of the redevelopment, we have consulted with over two hundred external organisations, and are now worKing with nine participatory forums which guide the redevelopment and inform gallery design, gallery content and activity programmes. We are also using this model of collaborative worKing to inform and shape our worK across the wider organisation. In this article, I will draw on examples from my ten years in Glasgow Museums of developing diverse audiences and broadening cultural participation while also giving examples of the different ways we are worKing at Amgueddfa Cymru with communities and partners to open up our museums, so that we are worKing with people proactively and co-productively. Alongside this, I will chart the journey we are on in our strategic approach to extending opportunities for cultural participation for children and families experiencing poverty. I will also talK about how this is making us change as in order to be a participatory museum, we have to open up ourselves and our museums to different ways of doing, thinking and worKing.
