In this post I consider the gap between academics/non-academics in children's art education. A contestable claim but something I believe is worthy of further discussion. I reflect upon my experience of moving from working as a full-time learning curator in an art museum to full-time PhD researcher and what I have learnt along the way.
This post reports on the 'Space, materials, the body: Researching young children's experiences in museum' symposium held at Manchester Metropolitan University on May 23, 2017.
