Well done Iris - what a wonderful launch. With talks from artist Lizzie Griffin and touch tours of the trail, it’s been great to learn more about the Liverpool Disability History Trail. Make sure to visit if you can! #disabilitytraillaunch Museum of Liverpool Screen South


Unfortunately I couldn't be there yesterday but huge congratulations to iriska 🌈✨💖 (she/her/hers) on the official opening of her trail!


Such a lovely celebration of all that Curating Visibility has achieved and the brilliant work going forward. It’s been amazing to be part of it at Museum of Liverpool with iriska 🌈✨💖 (she/her/hers) Great to see some of our co-production group friends from P F Merseyside on the big screen too!


We had a fabulous evening yesterday celebrating Curating Visibility and launching Curating Visibility. Wonderful to have so much enthusiam and support for this work in the room.

Enjoyed a night out Imperial War Museums to celebrate the work of Curating Visibility which is helping museums reinterpret their collections & become inclusive of D/Deaf, disabled & neurodivergent stories & storytellers. Congrats to Esther Appleyard-Fox for the successful delivery of this great project



Very late to the party but I had a wonderful time at the Curating Visibility celebration event last week 🥰 So exciting to see so many wonderful people I’ve worked with & to get to show off the display I curated with a 360 tour! What an incredible journey it’s been 💞💞
