We've worked with University of York on a student project to explain why museums sometimes have to dispose of objects. Our fantastic student placement Alexandra McMohan has put together this visually stunning presentation to help explain the process and communicate it to our audiences.👇


Excellent Museums Association article on challenges re: archaeological archives from Kat Baxter (Leeds Museums & Galleries and SMA). FWIW, my thought is that until receiving museums are a statutory part of the process we will struggle for a solution. museumsassociation.org/museums-journa…

I'm Museums Association #FutureofDisposal session today. Looking forward to picking up some top tips on ethical disposal


Really excited about our new exhibition 'Mary Anning Rocks!' opening Yorkshire Museum later this week. In that fantastically chaotic stage of exhibition install at present. Come and see it from Friday



Mary Annings Rocks! is open Yorkshire Museum from today. Please do come and see it. It is a lot of fun as well as having some fab specimens, all underpinned by Mary Anning's amazing story

Anyone interested in medieval money and economy would be well advised to come along (on 14 October) to this excellent symposium, in honour of Dr Martin Allen, retiring imminently from Fitzwilliam Museum.



Thank you so much Yorkshire Museum for welcoming us today for the launch of your incredible Star Carr Exhibition. Ray Mears & Woodlore and Nicky Milner Archaeology UoYork offered such amazing insight and inspiration!
