Community Engagement Case Studies

Tees Valley Museums have been working with communities to add their stories and artefacts to our collections and feed into our programming
We are working with our museum partners to engage local communities with museum collections and to support contemporary collecting.

Over time we’ll add stories to this space, as well as working with communities on physical exhibitions.
