On Thursday 5 October 2006, in celebration of International Museum’s Day, The Ark collaborated with the Irish Museum of Modern Art and The Heritage Council for this round table event. The inaugural meeting was aimed at encouraging ongoing dialogue and contact between professionals working with children from the museum, arts and education sectors who have an interest in stimulating collaborative practices across disciplines. This lively and productive forum was attended by 60 delegates.

Following the success of the initial Mapping the Territory meeting, The Ark, The Heritage Council and IMMA convened a second meeting on 29 May 2007, supported by The Arts Council.
With the aim of fulfilling the group’s call for ongoing dialogue and support across the three sectors, a broader base of professionals were given the opportunity to come together to discuss collaborative practice working with children and young people. The group addressed the feasibility of a national network as a means to achieving meaningful cross-sectoral practice for children and young people.
