BACKGROUND TO MK Y2Y CONSULTATION
Millennium Kids (MK) is working with the Western Australian Museum and the Commissioner for Children and Young People to offer young people an opportunity to have a say about how the Museum presents it’s exhibitions and collections through an innovative series of workshops and training activities. It’s all part of a new initiative to consult with young people about the future directions of the Western Australian Museum.
Millennium Kids will be scouring the region for inspiring people with stories to tell or exhibit to inspire young people in the lead up to the workshops.
The MK Team have already consulted with a number of people who have some fabulous exhibition concepts around the things that inspire them about the local region.
On the 1 April a team of thirty interested young people will be trained as facilitators who will lead the one day workshop on 2 June with one hundred young delegates.
Lucy's Inspiration
Hi, I'm Lucy M from Great Southern Grammar!
This picture isn't a photo that I took but it still provides inspiration and also this sort of clothing isn't easy to got hold of to take photos of.
I chose this picture because early 1900 clothing would be my idea for an exhibit. It inspires me because there would have been a lot of work and labour put into making these clothes and that shouldn't be forgotten.
Back then they didn't have machines to do the boring bits for them, so most of it was done by hand, I think maybe this could be the start of an idea for a exhibition. We could run a workshop of making and wearing olden style clothing.
Thanks,
Lucy!
