Dates for MGM 2008

14/09/2007


The MGM calendar of events will start with the MGM launch for decision-makers, leaders in the sector and media. This will be just before the Welcome Weekend, Friday 2 to Monday 5 May. There are plenty of inspirations from this year with launch events, tours and lectures in many museums and galleries.


Scary Museum Night at the Horniman Museum, MGM 2007.

Museums at Night will take place over the weekend Friday 16th to Sunday 18th May. Nuit des Musees, the European-wide celebration will be on Saturday 17th May, and International Museums Day is on Sunday 18th May.

The presentation of The Art Fund Prize (formerly the Gulbenkian Prize) will take place in the last week of May.

We will be planning a series of Museums and Galleries Month debates based on the successful format of 2007 with daytime and several evening events. In May 2007 Liverpool joined in with a great debate organised by Kids in Museums. We hope that more debates will take place out of London next May. There is a toolkit for organisers on our Toolkits section.

We will continue to improve communications with regular MGM Email Bulletins, through the website and the printed MGM News. Please update your contact details, or add them if you are new to MGM. Click here to access the Contact Form. This can be faxed or emailed back.

The MGM logos in Welsh and English will be in the print and templates section soon. The print templates including banners will be available in January. We will add some Word templates in response to requests from some museums.
