Calls to Action

In 2022, ANSM’s Unlocking Community Museum Collections project successfully facilitated ANSM and museums across the province to meet with four cultural communities to discuss how museums can better serve them. With help with our community partners, we’ve distilled key messages and calls to action which highlight the Unlocking work underway with the Acadian, African Nova Scotian, Gaelic and Mi’kmaq communities.

Thank you to everyone who participated. We recognise that there is much work to be done and this is just the beginning.
