Be Nosey about Art: Youth Panel Chats with Conservation and Library and Archives

This free event is part of our Youth Festival 2024. 

Join Youth Panel members for a chat with Muirne Lydon, Conservator, and Leah Benson, Archivist, about their career paths, research, and work at the Gallery. Be nosey, ask questions, and make new connections. All are welcome!

The Gallery Youth Panel is a group of young people who work together to find, make, and share impactful experience for their peers and communities at the Gallery. Membership is on an open, rolling basis, attendance is flexible and all are welcome! We are committed to actively promoting equality of opportunity and working to stop discrimination for all young people. Young people from diverse backgrounds, locations, and communities are encouraged to apply to join the Youth Panel! You do not need any particular skills or experiences to join, just an interest and enthusiasm for shaping programmes for young people.
