Eye-tracking research helps Indianapolis museum steer guests in the right direction "Prominent signage is key when navigating a new space. This is especially true when the majority of a location’s visitors are parents or guardians who are attempting to guide themselves while caring for young children. In partnership with the University of Southern Indiana, the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis used eye-tracking to determine how effective their wayfinding signage truly was for first-time guests."

What are our practices for healing when working with traumatic collections? How are we supporting ourselves as museum and heritage workers? How are creating spaces for healing with communities whose histories are being told? Join us for an impactful session at the upcoming Museums Heritage Show Show on May 15th - "Who Cares? Understanding Empathy and Trauma in Museums" with award-winning documentary filmmaker Ashton John. We'll be screening the powerful short film "To Whom Does This Belong?", made by Ashton John with Museum X, UK Activist Museum Award 2024 recipient,  together for Black Voices Cornwall CIO and Cornwall Museums Partnership. The film explores Cornish Black History through local archives and museum collections. You can expect a journey of raw reactions to artefacts ranging from newspaper articles to journal entries from a slave ship captain. We’ll discuss the discoveries made, Cornwall’s links to slavery and whether we think these artefacts should be on display at museums. We aim to spark critical discussions around confronting difficult histories, fostering empathy, and ensuring responsible and ethical interpretation of sensitive collections and subject matter in museums. Don't miss this powerful session, which sheds light on the trauma of racism and encourages museums to develop trauma-informed approaches as they decolonise their collections and practices: https://lnkd.in/e-RQiD5C Ashton John is adept at capturing the stories of diverse communities often overlooked. His films inspire social change and awareness. #MuseumsConnectingCommunities #DecolonizeMuseums #TraumaInformedPractices #RawHistories #EthicalCuration #SocialJustice
