SUMMARY:Town Hall - Museum Interpretive Concept
DESCRIPTION:The Cranbrook History Centre invites you to share your stories\, thoughts and feedback on our new Draft Museum Interpretive Concept. This will be an interactive meeting hosted by Melanie Greenaway of Double Dare Designs and Don Enrich from Don Enrich Consulting. This is your opportunity to explore the zones and narratives throughout the document with Melanie and Don\, asking questions and providing your thoughts. Throughout the meeting we will be using a polling software called Menti. We recommend for participants to have a smartphone\, a tablet\, or a browser window open to interact with the polls. More instructions will be provided at the meeting. \nIn 2024\, the Cranbrook History Centre engaged Double Dare Design to re-envision our visitor experience\, with a particular focus on developing a permanent exhibition in a currently unoccupied space in the building and a self-guided tour of the railcar collection. Double Dare has also conducted a high-level assessment of the other public-facing spaces that form part of the visitor experience. Based on this analysis\, the document outlines recommendations for visitor experience upgrades throughout the venue. Like all museums\, regular updates to infrastructure\, exhibitions\, and programs are necessary to engage the public and remain relevant to the Museum’s audiences. \nExplore the document: Here \nIf you’re unable to attend the online meeting\, the website invites you to provide your thoughts throughout by use the comment section on the bottom of each page. \n  \nRegister for the meeting: Here\n  \n
