To celebrate #MuseumWeek we are giving everyone a few more days to enter this year’s #DigiStoryFest. You now have until Sunday 26 June to submit an entry for this year’s contest.
So, why not explore our resources and amazing open access collections to find inspiration for your story, as our colleague Beth said today! We can’t wait to see what you create.
The moment has arrived! The Digital Storytelling Festival 2022 has closed so now it’s time to take a look at the inspiring entries and vote for your favourites.
To vote, all you have to do is hit the ‘Applause’ button at the bottom of the stories you like. The story with the most ‘claps’ will win our People’s Choice Award. The deadline for voting is 12 July 2022.
A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to share their stories with us — we love you for it!
