Community Engagement Case Study

This case study film features Staffordshire Archives and their Up Our Street project, created with support from Museum Development Midlands. Through interviews with staff, partners and participants, alongside footage of creative sessions and the final artwork, the film explores how the project used reminiscence and drawing to bring people together. It highlights the importance of community-focused work in tackling social isolation, celebrating local identity, and fostering a sense of belonging, while reflecting on the positive impact and future ambitions supported by MDM.
