Are museums more likely to close in areas of higher deprivation? The answers may be unexpected – read our new blog to find out: buff.ly/3xZCGw8
A useful data set @MuseumsMapping. Despite the clear pressures on local authority museums I count 728 museums opened over the same period. There are now 10% more museums around the UK than in 2020. Interested in the deeper analysis. @Aimuseums @MuseumsAssoc

The new @MappingMuseumsLab project on museum closure is now underway so we'll be publishing regular blogs on work in progress. Read more here: mapping-museums.bbk.ac.uk/blog/ @Aimuseums @IsabelCWilson @SimonAStephens
Nice to see our work on visualising museums data being featured on the Royal Geographical Society website. @AndreaBallatore rgs.org/about-us/what-…
Good to hear that pollock's Toy Museum have another pop-up opening. : londonist.com/london/things-…
Our @MuseumsMapping research project on museum closure is proving all too current. Which is depressing. bit.ly/41SGSsn
Hello @tootinghistory I'm trying to find out what happened to the old wandsworth Museum building. Do you know what it's being used for now, if anything?
Back on the museum trail. Now looking at closed museums and the legacy / aftermath. Yesterday the Royal Artillery collection ( previously Firepower), today the Percival David Collection, now at British Museum. Some considerable contrast.
Want a sneaky peek at our new home? On Sat 25th Nov 11-2 we will be hosting an open day in the empty mill space at @SaltsMill which will be our new home. Come share your thoughts on what should be in the new museum and feedback on our plans! Free, drop in, all welcome!
Started visiting outreach museums as part of new research. @DacorumHeritage first on the list. Finding out about the benefits of running pop up shows and about Ovaltine, a local industry. The woman with the basket of chicks was one of their marketing images.
In 1952 the late Queen visited Hemel Hampstead and was greeted by a small girl in her pants. Lovely photograph from @DacorumHeritage
