Healing Through Remembering - Living Memorial Museum Sub Group

Living Memorial Museum Sub Group

The Living Memorial Museum group considers what form a living memorial and museum might take.

The form of the Living Memorial Museum is still under discussion. The Living Memorial Museum Sub Group has commissioned an extensive audit of artefacts relating to the conflict which are held in existing archives and personal collections.

Dr. Kris Brown is conducting the audit which is being carried out through a joint Fellowship post at QUB.

The group has also conducted an Open Call for Ideas on what form a Living Memorial Museum to the conflict could take. A wide range of submissions were received and plans are underway for displaying them and generating further ideas.
