The draft programme for the forthcoming Leicester Museum Studies Fiftieth Anniversary Conference is now available on the ‘Global Contemporary’ website (where you can also book a place).

Me and Malika Kraamer will be presenting a paper – ‘Unplaced heritage: Making identity through fashion’ – on Wednesday, 20th April, which is based on the chapter we’re writing for the forthcoming Leicester Reader in  heritage and interpretation (title tbc) that I’m co-editing with Sheila Watson and Katy Bunning – more about that another time.

And Boundary Objects will be holding a members’ meet-up at the conference on Thursday 21st April, at 5.45pm. Keep an eye on the Boundary Objects twitter feed for further details.
