Teen Twitter Takeover

Teen Twitter Takeover will take place on Friday 3 August 2018.
Register here to take part.

Since 2014, Kids in Museums has been running Teen Twitter Takeover – a day which allows teenagers across the UK to make their voices heard by taking control of museum Twitter feeds.

Last year, almost 70 museum Twitter handles were taken over by more than 300 young people. As a result, around 300,000 people saw posts by our amazing teenage tweeters and #takeoverday was trending across the UK. We even had our @KidsinMuseums account taken over in the process!

Teen Twitter Takeover empowers teenagers and gives them a platform to engage with museums, heritage sites, archives, libraries and art and science centres across the UK. The day provides an opportunity for young people to talk to their peers across the country and gain experience with museums and their collections. It helps museums to see their collections in a new light and better understand their younger audiences.

Many museums use Teen Twitter Takeover as a springboard for working with young people on Takeover Day, which gives children and young people the chance to have a meaningful role anywhere within a museum.

If Teen Twitter Takeover sounds like something that you would like to be involved in, you can sign up by clicking the button at the top of the page.
