Museen zu Gast: DOMiD & Museum Selma Auf dem Weg zum Museum: Wie gelingt Partizipation im Aufbau?

In the organizer's words:

MiQua and Museum Selma have a number of things in common: Both emerged from the initiative of a committed association and both museums are still under construction, but are already focusing on participation before they open. With projects and programs, the two institutions are already having an impact on urban society and drawing attention to their work. Participation is of particular importance. But how does participation succeed in museums? What opportunities do the institutions already have... without a building? What can projects such as the "DOMiDLabs: Laboratories for Participatory Museum Design", in which members of the diverse urban community engage with museum content and design issues, achieve?
MiQua employees talk about this with Sandra Vacca, employee for participation and content at DOMiD, on whose behalf the Selma Museum is being created. Using the DOMiDLabs as an example, they will demonstrate the potential offered by genuine participation.
The discussion starts at 16:00 and will be repeated at 18:30.
