Time: 2pm–5:30pm
Hannah Goodwin, Independent Accessibility Specialist, Rebecca McGinnis, Senior Managing Educator for Accessibility at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) and Annie Leist, Associate Educator, Community & Access Programs at The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) provided a Workshop dedicated to developing multi-sensory strategies to engage all audiences.
Through interactive experiences, discussion, and group activities, registrants gained an understanding of the unique characteristics of different senses and modalities. They also received guidance on how and when to activate these to optimise learning, engagement, and enjoyment for various audiences. Registrants were equipped with tools and strategies to implement multi-sensory elements in galleries, the classroom, and online that benefit all learners and create more accessible and inclusive experiences. In order to maximise on registrants time, there was a small amount of pre-session work to do ahead of the session.
This Workshop took place on Wednesday 13 October 2021 from 2-5:30pm IST, registration was €25 per person.
