Part of our Creative Activists 2023-24 project.
Join our Creative Activists and help us programme a museum open day for Holocaust Memorial Day 2024. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people, work with professional artists and develop creative skills.
This session will be co-hosted by Manchester Jewish Museum’s curator, Alex Cropper. Alex will share Holocaust stories from our collection, encouraging discussion and creative reflection. We will also talk about best practice regarding exhibition creation and representation of Holocaust histories in museums, which will help us shape next year’s events.
No artistic experience necessary. Just bring yourself and an open mind!
