A portfolio and online journal by Amy C, Museum Education Professional. Sharing original poetry, articles, artwork, and reflections on museum education, social justice, and personal values including feminism, LGBT+ rights, anti-racism, and equality. With over three years in learning and engagement roles, I contribute to Birmingham Museums Trust by fostering meaningful, inclusive experiences that celebrate diverse histories. My expertise lies in audience development, team management, and delivering creative programs that inspire a love of learning, particularly in the domains of feminism and the ancient world. At Birmingham Museums Trust, I led the development of impactful events such as the annual 'International Women and Girls in Science Day,' emphasizing collaboration and community engagement. My mission is to create accessible opportunities for learning while empowering teams and contributing to organizational growth.
That house is burned into your memory.
Branded, with a hot poker, onto the soft flesh of your brain.
Nothing feels safe.
And he wants nothing to do with you. He has no use for you anymore.
You have little worth once you’ve taken your body off of their menu.
You watch,
marriages, breakups, love & laughter.
All from far away.
As if you’re a ghost.
You wonder if you’ll ever feel you are,
anything other than a failure.
