Cultural Activity Impact Report
Cabinet 15 March 2017 Cultural Activity Impact Report Report of Corporate Management Team Ian Thompson, Corporate Director of Regeneration and Local Services Councillor Neil Foster, Cabinet Portfolio Holder for Culture, Regeneration and Economic Development Purpose of the Report 1 The purpose of this report is to provide Members with an update on the County’s Cultural Programme and offer further insight into the value and impact of this vibrant and growing area which forms part of the Council’s economic planning. The report reflects on the recent achievements of the county wide programme and seeks support for future cultural activity. Background 2 The County’s cultural assets and creative output continue to grow. They now not only attract considerable visitors and inward investment but enhance the Council’s and County’s reputation on a local, regional, national and international level, with residents, visitors and investors alike. This continued growth has been the result of a number of factors including public, private and third sector’s collective ambition and investment in the value and impact of cultural activity. Growth through the Cultural sector continues to be part of the Council’s planning for regeneration and economic development. 3 For the County Council this has been through a renewed and supported ambition for culture since LGR that has grown out of the City of Culture ambition of 2009. This has seen the development of a thriving and vibrant programme delivered directly through the Council’s own programmes, as well as supporting, both financially and creatively, the wider sector to flourish and continue to build and reimagine the County’s cultural offer in a profound way.

Recovering the Popular Past: the Beamish Open-Air Museum in Its British Context John Walton
Recovering the Popular Past: the Beamish Open-Air Museum in its British Context John Walton. This paper may seem somewhat paradoxical in the context of the symposium, because it deals with a museum project that deliberately marginalized and finally sold off its ‘great house’, while retaining and presenting to the public the two farmhouses that were on the site, and incorporating an array of other domestic and industrial buildings (including a cluster of coal miners’ cottages and the surface buildings and machinery of an actual coal mine) into a complex site which has grown during more than thirty years to occupy over three hundred acres. The text of the paper as presented here is an adaptation, with some shared text, of Chapter 6 of The Playful Crowd: Pleasure Places in the Twentieth Century, a book that I co-authored with Gary Cross in 2005; but the research on the North of England Open Air Museum at Beamish, in County Durham, and its interpretation in the British context, is my own.1 The later years of the twentieth century saw the rise of the open-air museum of industrial and social history in Britain. Its range of artefacts and reconstructions from a documented past laid claim to scholarly accuracy and historical authenticity in ways that commercial theme-parks did not choose to emulate. A significant British pioneer in this field was the open-air museum at Beamish in County Durham, in the old industrial north- east of England. Seeking to represent a relatively recent industrial past, much of which was still within living memory, Beamish rode the wave of interest in industrial archaeology that grew out the work of L.T.C.

A Post-Colonial Study of Museums in North Yorkshire
Exhibiting the countryside: A post-colonial study of museums in North Yorkshire Siriporn Srisinurai Master of Arts (by Research) University of York Department of Sociology October 2013 1 Abstract This dissertation attempts to understand the images and stories of the countryside exhibited in two local museums in North Yorkshire – the Ryedale Folk Museum, Hutton le Hole and the Beck Isle Museum of Rural Life, Pickering. The study was conducted through qualitative methods mainly based on multi-sited museography, documentary and visual archives, and interviews. Using a postcolonial framework, this research’s findings relate to three main arguments. First, museums and modernity: the research explores both museums as theatres of memory rather than as a consequence of the heritage industry. The emergence of these museums involves practices that responded to industrialisation and modernity, which led to massive and rapid changes in the Ryedale countryside and nearby rural ways of life. Second, museums and the marginal: “the countryside” exhibited in both museums can be seen as the margins negotiating with English nationalism and its dominant narratives of homogeneity, unity and irresistible progress. Three key aspects involved with this process are space, time, and people. The first part of the research findings considers how both museums negotiated with English nationalism and the use of the countryside as a national narrative through images of the countryside “idyll” and the north-south divide. The second part illustrates how local folk museums exhibited “folklife” as the “chronotopes of everyday life” in contrast with the “typologies of folk objects”. The third part focuses on forgotten histories and domestic remembering of space, time and people based on the “local and marginal” rather than the “universal and national”.

Shelving is full and archives are now stacking up on the floor due to a lack of storage space. There is also an accessioning backlog due to lack of curatorial resources.” Local Authority museum, West Midlands “At the time of writing we are about to enter a process to reduce costs by cutting staff - it is unknown how this might impact on the archaeology team… Since last year we have had to absorb a large number of archives being held by a decommissioned field unit which has reduced our capacity [to collect]….” Local Authority museum, South West “Reduction in curator hours by 0.5FTA in 2013, followed by loss of 0.5FTA collections manager role in 2016 due to retirement, which role has not been replaced… Continuing pressure on council budgets making life increasingly difficult…” Local Authority museum, South East “Our staffing level has increased due to a change in our circumstances from government to charity, we had a lump sum to spend, once this is used up, staffing levels will go back to previous levels, if not lower…” Charitable Trust museum, North East i Museums Collecting Archaeology (England) REPORT YEAR 2: November 2017 © Historic England Contents 1 SUMMARY ...............................................................................................................
