MuseumNext Museums, Games & Play Summit


MuseumNext's "Museums, Games & Play Summit" will take place online between 28 February - 2 March 2022 (GMT).

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 Museums, Games & Play Summit will bring together museum professionals from around the globe to share best practice in creating engaging playful experiences both in the museum and online.

Call for papers: Passed
Price: 120 GBP (Full registration fee); 240 GBP (Organisation registration fee); 60 GBP (Freelance registration fee); 25 GBP (Student registration fee)
