Info
There are over 120 museum, library and archive collections designated of national importance by the Museums Libraries and Archives Council (MLA). Your Icons celebrates the ten designated collections in the West Midlands cared for and interpreted by twelve organisations across the region. These collections are incredibly rich and diverse, ranging from those of the Barber Institute of Fine Arts to the Wedgwood Museum, including – for example – those of the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust, Ironbridge GorgeMuseums and the great municipal collections of Birmingham. The West Midlands is the only region in England which celebrates its rich heritage in this way and the website provides a virtual showcase for our regional treasures.
The Your Icons project also included design of travelling exhibitions, flyers and bookmarkers to promote the site.
The site is currently in progress of being updated for summer 2009.
