Amy C, Museum Education Professional, WRITER , ACTIVIST, QUEER.

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.

You are sat on your kitchen floor.

You have been crying.

Things, all things, all at once, move,

at the speed of light.

You hope that she’s proud of you.

Dandelion, Echinacia

Masc// Fem. Air. Divination, wishes, growth,

and healing.

Longevity.

Kept at arms length,

despite all the good.

And its so good.

Wednesday.

Lucky day?

Scales. Balanced. Aligned.

Running out of understanding.

You are running out of patience and time.

Afraid to look over your shoulder,

you know they are gaining.

Nipping, clawing,

at your bare heels.

Still, you keep running.

December, snow, icy blue and freezing,

to your very core.

You trip and fall.

A snow angel,

as you drown in the snowflakes.

As they pile on top of you,

stripping your already shivering lungs of oxygen.

Your eyes drift shut.

You are warm.

Happy,

at peace.
