Museums Galleries Scotland - Delivering Change: Community Catalysts

Details

Delivering Change is a Museums Galleries Scotland programme that recognises that museums have played a part in excluding the experiences and histories of many of Scotland’s people and communities. This three-year programme, funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund, thanks to National Lottery players, and the Scottish Government supports museums and galleries across Scotland to make changes to help all people to access culture. 

The programme will support approximately 10 community groups to connect with one of the Museum Transformers.

Once accepted on the programme your group will:

  • Receive a development grant of £2,000. This money can be used to support you and your community to take part in the programme.
  • There will be an initial visit from Delivering Change staff to discuss your project idea and to begin to plan what support, training, and resources you need to participate in the programme.
  • Your group will then work with the Delivering Change team to be partnered with one of the Museum Transformers.
  • Then you and your partner museum will develop your project, with support from the Delivering Change team.
  • Once your project is developed and approved then project funding of up to £25,000 will be awarded. You and your partnered museum can then get started on making your project a reality.
