Are you a museum, gallery, historic house or organisation that would like to sign up to the 2009 Kids in Museums Manifesto? Then just email signup@kidsinmuseums.org.uk. Signing up doesn’t mean that you’re doing everything on the Manifesto already. For some places, that’s not possible. For example, not everywhere can have a café. But it does mean that you aspire to the Manifesto’s aims. We’d love to have you on board.
