#FMJSummit - What's it like to be a freelancer in museums and heritage?

Museums use freelancers in every area of work from audiences to project management; collections to evaluation. Join our panel to discuss how to succeed as a freelancer - the key skills and experience you'll need and what to consider about whether it's right for you. We'll be open about the highs and lows, and have plenty of time for your questions.
