Great to see this piece by @slinkissimo for @MuseumsAssoc on folklore collections in museums (for which she interviewed me - so my words are probably in here somewhere!)

Excellent piece in #MuseumsJournal on the case for a Museum of British Folklore. Still need to get my ‘British Folk Art’ module up and running, maybe 2023/24…. @MuseumsAssoc @DrFrancisYoung @ComptonVerney #MuseumOfBritishFolklore #BritishFolkArt
