Train as a Cultural Learning and Participation Officer (Level 3 Apprenticeship). A role for someone who enjoys sharing history with others. What are the hidden stories behind our museum objects? Uncover the histories of our collection, looking at gender, race, disability, and faith. You will help us by recording these in our museum catalogue. With this new research you will help us create and run workshops, exhibitions, and tours. Our community is our school aged students, parent and toddler groups, and elders' groups. We want you to engage and empower our audiences with playful ideas and research.
