Creative Outreach
In 2022 the Museum was awarded a three-year National Lottery Heritage Fund grant to share Worcester porcelain’s food and drink related heritage through creative activities. The funding has allowed us to employ two Heritage Engagement Officers to take the Pop-up Museum out into local communities with creative sessions, supported by volunteers.
Just some of the amazing work we have been able to do has included taking creative heritage activities into
- Care homes run by Platform Housing Group
- Youth groups run by Worcester Community Trust, Perdiswell Young People’s Centre and Malvern Cube
- Community groups such as Headway, Joy Project, Branches Day Centre
- Gloverspeice School, Guides and Brownie Groups
- County wide outreach at Worcester Show, Countrytastic, Worcester University,
- Run an annual Open Day
The funding has also meant that we have been able to involve local artists as well as former-workers in sharing their skills and exchanging memories, experiences and factory stories and continue to inspire creativity.
These amazing community collaborations are made possible because of the kind support of the National Lottery players.
