Brew Up Industrial Collections Network
Brew Up! brings together people who work with industrial collections in the North of England to explore a range of issues when caring for, and working with, these diverse collections. Throughout the day colleagues across the region will share their learning and there will be plenty of opportunities to network.
This session at the Sunday School, part of the wider Locomotion site will focus on ‘Commemorative Events’. The day will explore how various museums with industrial collections across the North are commemorating key events and anniversaries and the opportunities and challenges they face.
For more information on the main Locomotion venue visit here.
There will be an opportunity to take a tour around the exterior of the heritage buildings, and a delicious, complimentary lunch is provided.
Speakers and agenda will be shared soon.

We encourage you to bring a reusable hot drink cup and water bottle, and perhaps a Tupperware to take home any leftovers to minimise food waste.
