Anybody aware of a feed for arts and humanities and/or museums and heritage conferences?

Insanely proud of my partner @nicknewman.bsky.social for submitting his PhD thesis - and a massive portfolio of his creative practice! Watch this space for an *incredible* piece of work (and resources) on guiding theatre directors to better portray Alzheimer’s disease on stage 👏👏👏

So captivated by not only with the content of the Beyond the Bassline project/exhibition, but how the panel conversation is flowing with incredible facilitation by Miles Greenwood @museumsassociation.bsky.social #Museums2024

Perspective from sat at a table at a panel for Beyond the Bassline panel at Museums Association conference 2024. In the background are two large projector screens in the top left and right showing slides from the Beyond the Bassline exhibition, with a table of four people below them in the middle on the stage who are lit by yellow-hued spotlights. They are in front of a black wall with small lights coming through like stars behind them. In the top of the image are the lighting and ventilation riggings, which have neon purple lighting, facing to the back of the room and downward. In the midsection of the image, and moving towards the photographer are round tables with black table cloths, the backs of black chairs around the tables, and the backs of people’s heads who are attending the panel.

On my train bright and early from #York for the #Museums2024 conference in Leeds @museumsassociation.bsky.social

Photograph taken out of a train carriage window, looking out onto York railway station. With a glass arched ceiling and LNER train carriages in the background. In the foreground are access ramps for trains on the left, with someone in shadow sat on a bench next to them, the main platform with a decorative columned archway, and a three-seat pale metal bench facing the camera to the right. In the very foreground are the words ‘MIND THE STEP’ backwards, so the could be read the right way round for someone walking towards the train, in bold yellow paint on the floor, and a bold yellow ‘safety’ line running right-left in the floor in the very bottom of the image.

Please tell me that at least one other person had that uncanny feeling re parallels between recent Trump news and Agatha Christie’s “A Murder is Announced”…

Two pink interlocking S shapes each going from thick to thin lines. The one of the left is thin on the top and thicker on the bottom, the one on the right is thick on the top and thinner on the bottom. To the right of the interlocking S shapes are three words in pink on separate lines which say The Sensational Museum. This is all on top of a white background.

I have been in worse venues… Really looking forward to repping @sensationalmuseum.bsky.social and doing some recon 👀 at the Museum Development Yorkshire event at York’s beautiful Hospitium today
