There is no denying that these are uncertain times we are living in.

Each year at Birmingham Museums Trust we are supported by an amazing team of volunteers.

Nature is taking over! As we spend more time in our homes we want to encourage families, young people and adults to explore their natural environment and carry out their very own BioBlitz! #BigBrumBioblitz .

Having volunteered with the Learning Team since January last year, I have come to know Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery very well.

Culture and creativity make you feel good! Whether you’re going on a virtual museum tour, listening to music, writing poetry, or making your favourite craft, there’s lots of research that getting involved with the arts can work wonders and improve everyone’s mental and physical health.

Your stories are precious and need to be shared.

This week is Creativity and Wellbeing Week, a UK-wide festival full of activities showing how culture and creativity can support everyone’s health and wellbeing.

Birmingham Museums has launched a new exciting way for you to stay connected with friends and family, whilst sharing beautiful artworks from the city’s collection.

Did you know that doing something creative or engaging with culture and heritage, can transform your health and wellbeing? .

My name is Robert and I volunteer at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery (BMAG) as a Gallery Interpreter.
