Running a careers themed Takeover Day: Afternoon Cuppa Session

Tuesday 13 May, 2pm - 3.30pm

Join us for an informal virtual briefing and discussion session to inspire your own careers themed Takeover Day.

Established by Kids in Museums in 2010, Takeover Day is when museums, galleries, historic homes, archives and heritage sites invite young people to take over jobs normally done by adults. Over 5,000 people, from toddlers to 25 year olds, now take part each year. This year, Takeover Day is on Friday 21 November.

The theme for Takeover Day in 2025 is careers. We are bringing Takeover Day back to its roots and highlighting how it can support young people of all ages to learn about different jobs in museums and develop their skills, both in the sector and beyond. The date also coincides with Discover Creative Careers Week.

In this session, we will:

Provide a range of ideas to inspire your own careers themed Takeover Day with local children and young people,

Hear a case study from the Great North Museum: Hancock about hosting their first careers themed Takeover Day in 2024,

Create opportunities for attendees to informally share their ideas for Takeover Day or experience of other careers focused projects they have undertaken.

Please bring along your own cuppa and snacks!

Take a look at the full schedule.

This event will be delivered virtually over one and a half hours.
