- Résumé
- Community participation is a very pressing matter in the museum field today. There are a vast number of practical and theoretical issues to be considered from both the museum and the community perspective. This paper undertakes an examination of these issues in an effort to move toward developing a coherent and integrated body of theory and practice related to the subject. This examination involves a discussion of participation theory developed outside the museum field, coupled with an examination of the participation experiences and considerations particular to the mueseum. Based on this analysis ten factors which contribute to successful community participation in museum are suggested. A case study of the exhibit Africville: A spirit That Lives On is then presented as a model which embodies all of these 10 factors.
