Episode 3 - Liam Wiseman (Arts Council England) - Museum Funding, Resilience and Diversity

For Arts' Sake

Liam believes that museums are not neutral, and wants them to challenge themselves to always be more inclusive, empathetic, and radical. He believes in the power museums have to go beyond their fundamental role as holders of history, and use that knowledge to present a bold and fair vision for the future. He wants to see museums decolonise their collections, and provide more people with the power to make the decisions over what gets collected and displayed. But most of all, he really just wants museums to be more fun.
