Listen "Manc 63: Sally MacDonald - The Manc With A Foot In The Past And The Future"
Episode Synopsis
“It’s about creating a new generation of Mancs who believe they can do anything”Can a museum do exactly that? Sally MacDonald is the Director of the Science and Industry Museum, and that’s her aim. Sally learnt about the importance of looking and storytelling through objects, after attending an art class at Manchester Museum as a child. Her passion continued as she studied archaeology and went on to open museums in London - before being pulled back up north by the job at MOSI in 2014.In this episode, you’ll hear how the museum fuses together old and new technologies to keep industry alive; how it’s responding to the return of visitors post-pandemic, and how it’s working towards achieving Manchester's ambitious carbon-negative goals.------Your host, Lisa Morton, started PR company Roland Dransfield in 1996, one month after the fateful IRA bomb that tore apart the city centre. From that point, the business, and its team members, have been involved in helping to support the creation of Modern Manchester – across regeneration, business, charity, leisure and hospitality, sport and culture.To celebrate the 25 years that Roland Dransfield has spent creating these bonds, Lisa is gathering together some of her Greater Mancunian ‘family’ and will be exploring how they have created their own purposeful relationships with the best place in the world.Connect with Lisa and Roland Dransfield: Via our websiteOn InstagramOn TwitterOn SpotifyConnect with Sally and MOSIVia the MOSI websiteOn LinkedInOn TwitterMentioned in this episode: We Built This City's partnership with Manchester Metropolitan UniversityOn this episode, We Built This City has partnered with Manchester Metropolitan University.
