MuseumNext will host the Museums, Games & Play Summit, a virtual conference on the power of play in museums.

Date: September 18 – 19, 2024
Location: Virtual

Museums are typically thought of as destinations to house and display art, artefacts and collections of cultural interest. But in an age of shortened attention spans, it’s becoming more obvious that museums can’t simply be something nice to look at — they must actively engage their visitors.

To do this, many institutions are turning to play, in its many forms, to both engage and educate those who walk through their doors.

The virtual conference will bring together museum professionals from around the globe to share best practices in creating engaging playful experiences both in the museum and online.

Who is it for?

From educators to digital teams, exhibition designers to community engagement, front of house to leadership the Museums, Games & Play Summit offers inspiring new ideas to inspire your team.
