The ADIT Project Workshop is a two or three day workshop for discussing and designing museum communication strategies in the digital age. For the first time, ADIT workshops were held before the ADIT conference in Yelabuga (Tatarstan) in 2016 and then became part of the extended program of the annual ADIT conference: 2017 - Tver, 2018 - Saratov / Engels, 2019 - Yekaterinburg. In 2020, the workshops were held online using the Zoom and Moodle platforms with the support of the Vladimir Potanin Charitable Foundation. in 2021 and 2022 we returned to traditional face-to-face format (Vladivostok, Kaliningrad).

Workshop objectives

• To form an idea of ​​approaches to designing an information strategy for memory institutions in the digital age;
• Identify problem areas and deficiencies in communication, formulate principles for building museum expositions in the digital age and develop plans for its implementation;
• To give participants an idea of ​​the ways and technologies by which collection information management works to communicate with audiences, including through automated information systems;
• Contribute to the emergence of project ideas in the field of presentation of collections in the form of information, educational and cognitive products.

The experience gained during the workshops proved to be particularly valuable in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has greatly affected the work of museums around the world. About 40 people from more than 20 regions of Russia took part in the online workshops in 2020.

The main discussion at the 2020 workshops was about how museums have restructured their internal and external communication and how have they activated their external virtual presence? Why, under the lockdown, did museums so quickly master what they had not been able to master for decades and what they had never gotten their hands on? How and why did priorities that seemed unshakable change so quickly? Who and what does the modern online environment of the museum and its environment consist of? How is the audience of the museum changing, which ceases to be predominantly local? How will different museum departments have to restructure their work? How should this affect the formation of the information, communication and digital strategy of the museum and how will it affect professional competencies and the development of the professional sphere?

The workshops combine expert lectures, group work, presentations, discussions and business games. Workshops can be held online, offline at the customer's site or in a mixed format, where part of the audience works remotely, and part - in the classroom.

The project of creating museum audio guides by children with the coopertion with  izi.travel platform

The idea of ​​the project was proposed by Nikolai and Tatyana Selivanov, the founders and leaders of the Artistic Design Workshop. The children's museum and educational project "School of Schools" was based on the triad "School - Museum - IT". The main objective of the project was to develop a methodology for describing, studying and creatively interpreting a genuine museum object by teenagers. The material that schoolchildren had to collect in the course of studying, the knowledge and experience gained by them, were called upon to serve as the necessary scientific basis for creating a new creative information product. In this format, the “School of Schools” was held in September 2015 as part of the ADIT conference in Vologda.

Since 2016, ADIT has been conducting the "School of Schools" project together with IZI.TRAVEL. Groups of teenagers from studios and circles within museums develop and record thematic audio guides and publish them on the izi.travel storytelling platform. The project coordinator from ADIT is Tatyana Nikolaeva, the head of museum projects at Artemy Lebedev's studio, from izi.travel - Oksana Turskaya, deputy director of izi.travel.

About the "School of Schools" project at the ADIT-2016 conference in Yelabuga (Tatarstan)

In 2021, the School of Schools project was successfully implemented in Vladivostok as part of the ADIT conference. In 2022, project activities were held as part of the ADIT-2022 conference in Kaliningrad on June 6 and 7, 2022.

In total, the project teams made more than 12 guides to the museum and urban spaces of Yelabuga (2016), Tver (2017), Saratov (2018), Yekaterinburg (2019), Vladivostok (2021) and Kaliningrad (2022). Their selection can always be found on the izi.travel website by the keyword ADIT.

In 2023, the ADIT conference and the School of Schools project are planned to be held in Murmansk, on the basis of the Murmansk Regional Museum of Local Lore.
