[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

BCMA, in partnership with the Kelowna Museums Society, is pleased to

*Setting the Stage for Learning: How to create visitor-focused programs and
exhibits at your museum*



Date:  Friday, November 8, 2019

Time:  10a - 3pm

Location:  Okanagan Heritage Museum - 470 Queensway Ave, Kelowna, BC  V1Y
6S7



Instructor:  Kim Gough, Learning Program Developer, Royal BC Museum



Creating innovative, responsive programs and exhibits for visitors is key
to building new audiences and converting occasional visitors into returning
visitors and members. The workshop is facilitated by Kim Gough, Learning
Program Developer at the Royal BC Museum. You will work in small teams to
work through steps of the Design Thinking process to build skills in
creating new programs and exhibitions *with* visitors, not just for
them. This process is scalable for different types and sizes of
institutions. Design Thinking uses elements like empathy, ideation and
experimentation to arrive at innovative solutions that suit visitors’ needs
and expectations.
