Hear my Story
Hear My Story Partnership
The My Yorkshire website was created by the Hear My Story Partnership. This is a Partnership of 11 museums across Yorkshire and Humber;
-
Tolson Museum, Kirklees
-
Kelham Island Museum, Sheffield
The
vision of the Partnership is:
'to be a cutting edge and dynamic centre of excellence for community history. The Partnership will be a locally and nationally significant resource embedded in our communities, organisation and sector'.
Each museum is working on an innovative community history project - read more about the projects (PDF download, file size: 1.9MB). In 2008/9 the Partnership worked with over 20 community groups to explore local and personal histories of local people.
The projects are also helping to improve the visitor experience at many of the museums, for example, by providing exciting temporary exhibitions, events, trails and permanent exhibitions.
Find out the latest news about the Partnership in our April 2009 newsletter (PDF download, file size: 1.6MB).
This website and the Hear My Story projects are supported by Renaissance Yorkshire. To find out more email info@myyorkshire.org.
