I have really loved being a part of the Ashmolean’s CREATIVES Youth Panel as I have met so many interesting people and gained a lot of insight into how the museum runs behind the scenes. The highlight of the Panel for me has been organising and coming up with ideas for Museum events as well as talking to the people who work at the Museum and learning about their different roles and jobs.

The Ashmolean Panel has given me an unique insight and perspective into how a museum as prestigious as ours works from within. I decided to become part of the panel as I have always been interested in history and art, especially when combined. The Panel has given me the opportunity to meet members of staff in the Museum, from curators and historic researchers, to co-ordinators of the gift shop. I have immensely enjoyed visiting exhibitions and collections, meeting new people on the panel and discovering a new case for historic artefacts within the Museum. Definitely an experience and worth missing a lie-in once a month on a Saturday morning! Anna G
The CREATIVES Panel is a great experience to meet new people and to see The Ashmolean from a different perspective. We get to organise and attend Live Friday event and organised one activity at the most recent Live Friday. This was a useful situation to learn about organisation, time management and social skills.
