Do you want to create a visual story about your museum to help families and other visitors to plan their visits, but don’t know where to start? In this session, SEND in Museums Consultant Sam Bowen will guide you through how to create visual stories, drawing on her own professional museum learning knowledge and lived experience as a parent of a child with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND).
