Significance assessments are an important process for understanding a collection and planning its future management.
Our significance assessments use the best practice framework defined in Significance 2.0. Circa Museum Services also understands and adheres to the requirements of the National Library of Australia's Community Heritage Grants for Significance Assessments, ensuring that grant requirements can be fully acquitted. We can provide a quote to support your application to this grants program, or for a privately funded assessment. Contact Circa Museum Services to discuss whether a significance assessment is the appropriate next step for your collection, and to learn what is involved in the assessment process.
