Creative Museum

2015

“The think tank Creative Museum has been coordinating the working group Museums and Creative Industries within the Network of European Museum Organisations (NEMO) since 2014. Before that we spent two years monitoring and mapping the most successful examples of cooperation between museums and creative industries in Latvia. In 2015 we began developing the methodology for recording the added value of synergy between museums and creative industries.

Its aim is to argue in favour of museums as an important support base for creative industries and, at their best, as creative industries in their own right.

[It aims:]

To raise the profile of museums in the context of creative industries;

To learn more about cooperation between museums and creative industries: what is happening, where, and how;

To prove the benefits of cooperation among cultural and creative industries for the policy makers;

To stimulate future cooperation among museums and creative industries agents; To support objectives of the Creative Europe."
