Atlanta History Center

Made By Us, an entity of the Atlanta History Center, will create programming resources for museums that encourage informed youth participation in civic life and the 250th commemoration of the United States. Project activities will include hosting four convenings around the country, with museum leaders and young adults, to articulate programming strategies and approaches for museums to better meet the needs of youth. External consultants will be hired to compile and analyze results from workshops and to develop a Youth250 Toolkit, which will assist museums in planning youth programs. Gen Z staff will work with consultants to build a Youth250 Bureau made up of 25 members, who will train and advise museums on the use of this Toolkit. The Youth250 Toolkit and Youth250 Bureau will be easily accessible and replicable for museums to use for audiences with specific needs.
