Episode 39 of the Cultural Peeps Podcast features a chat with Georgina Ascroft, the Museum and Gallery Manager for the Museum of Hartlepool and the Hartlepool Art Gallery.

In our chat we talk about Georgina’s career journey so far, which includes roles at a wide range of Museums with a focus on curatorial and archival work. These include a trainee curator role in Medieval Britain with the British Museum (as part of the Future Curators Programme) as well as roles at Bede’s World, The Great North Museum, The Auckland Project and Woodhorn Museum (which is part of Museums Northumberland).

Thanks to Georgina for the chat!
