We are now recruiting arts and heritage organisations for the New Museum School Advanced Programme’s third cohort.
In 2020, we formed a new partnership with the University of Leicester’s School of Museum Studies to explore how they could work together to foster a more diverse and inclusive arts, museums and heritage sector. The partnership brings together Culture&’s track record in nurturing diverse talent through sector collaborations with Leicester’s experience of supporting creative and critical thinking amongst museums, arts and heritage practitioners and a long- standing commitment to positive action.
The New Museum School Advanced Programme, the first formal programme of the partnership, launched in 2021 with support from the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. The Programme not only offers a gold-plated postgraduate offer but also brings with it the opportunity to harness the arts and heritage sector in driving a movement of inclusive transformation.
Students enrol in 2-year part-time postgraduate courses at the university, as part of this they take part in a Project in Practice Module with an Arts and Heritage organisation – conducting high quality research for the organisation.
