BCMA Podcast: Equity and Leadership with Michelle Richard and Emma Wilton
Join our host Lorenda and Michelle Richard and Emma Wilton from the Sooke Region Museum for a conversation about community engagement, leadership, and reimagining a local museum. Ahead of the museum’s 50th anniversary, Michelle and Emma share how community feedback is guiding a complete refresh of its permanent exhibits. Explore the challenges of widening historical narratives, recognizing bias, improving accessibility, and creating space for more people to see themselves reflected in the museum while discussing transparency, accountability, risk-taking, and the importance of listening, learning, and adapting while caring for the stories and belongings entrusted to their organization.
