We at Artemis provide a range of educational and
cultural services tailored to meet the needs of our clients -
schools, museums and heritage sites. Artemis supports the Curriculum
in its delivery of workshops on historical, environmental and
citizenship subjects working within the 5-14 curriculum guidelines.
Costumed interpretation is also provided in the
context of other appropriate learning material as required by
each client. Where costumed interpretation is being delivered,
appropriate room settings are created with period props and handling
materials to compliment the interpretation.
Artemis has deservedly
won a reputation for meticulous attention to detail and historically
accurate and well researched first person live interpretation.
In
November 2006, Stirling Castle won the prestigious Sandford Award
for excellence in its heritage education provision. Artemis had
been invited by Historic Scotland to create and deliver a Mary,
Queen of Scots costumed workshop tailored specifically for Stirling
Castle and it was this particular workshop that was chosen for
the Sandford judges to see. We are happy to be part of the team
that helped secure this benchmark of excellence for heritage
education in Scotland.
The range of services now available has extended to provide:
- museum and gallery teaching resources for schools
- interpretation training courses and CPD courses for teachers
and those involved in museum, gallery and heritage education
- costumed guiding training and delivery
- object handling sessions at heritage events
- consultancy in interpretation and museum education
Artemis’ clients include BBC Radio Scotland and Radio
4, Historic Scotland, National Museums of Scotland, The Edinburgh
World Heritage Trust, National Library of Scotland, Glasgow Museums’ Service,
ATS Heritage and a wide range of Scottish educational authorities
and museums in the north of England.
