Takeover Day

Kids in Museums is encouraging museums to register their interest for this year’s Takeover Day on 23 November, when museums and galleries invite young people to take on meaningful roles in the running of their institutions.

Oh joy! I am so glad you have included the word meaningful this year. Let me think ... you can be in charge of health and safety for the day; and for signing contracts; and how about doing some staff appraisals; or answering some customer complaints? And could you let me have a draft of the corporate plan before the end of the day?

What do you mean those are not the sort of meaningful roles you meant?
