Mini museums have been created to spark curiosity for the patients and young families at Sheffield Children’s Hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n

The hospital\u2019s programme, Artfelt, worked with Sheffield Museums to bring elements of their collection to the curated museum.<\/span><\/p>\n

The aim of the mini museum is for families to enjoy exhibitions when they are not able to.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Cat Powell, head of Artfelt, said: \u201cAccess to arts and heritage is proven to improve both physical and mental health so we\u2019re excited to keep working with Sheffield Museums on more exhibitions in future.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve loved seeing the stories the children have come up with and it\u2019s so special to have these pieces loaned from the museum.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

Alongside creative agency Peter and Paul, these stories were turned into special worlds at the entrances to the wards<\/p><\/div>\n

Children worked with the facilitator, Carmen Kalnars, to look at vintage toys and created stories on how they might interact.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dual stories were then displayed in glass cabinets\u00a0 on the entrance to the ward.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sarah Lynch, a play leader on the hospital wards, said: \u201cThe mini-museums have brightened up the entrance to the ward and are viewed by patients, parents and staff continually throughout the day.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The aim of the mini museum is for families to enjoy exhibitions when they are not able to.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Clara Morgan, curator of Social History at Sheffield Museums said: \u201cMuch of Sheffield\u2019s <\/span>museum collection has been donated by people of Sheffield, so for us it\u2019s important to find <\/span>new ways to continue to share and celebrate those collections with the city\u2019s communities. <\/span>It\u2019s been fantastic to work with Artfelt on the displays at Sheffield Children\u2019s and see the <\/span>amazing responses the children have created as part of them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"

Patients on Wards 1, 2 and 3 at Sheffield Children’s looked at vintage toys and invented stories on how they might interact<\/p><\/div>\n

Testaments which children wrote as part of the displays showcased their creativity and imagination.<\/span><\/p>\n

Artfelt is The Children\u2019s Hospital Charity\u2019s arts programme and plays an important <\/span>role to make patients feel more comfortable at Sheffield Children\u2019s Hospital.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ms Lynch added: \u201cOver the many years that I have worked at Sheffield Children\u2019s, I have worked closely on numerous occasions with Artfelt and it has been lovely to see their joint work with Sheffield Museums. On behalf of everyone on my ward, I would like to say thank you for creating these mini-museums for us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
