Dr Nicola Wallis is a practitioner research associate in Early Childhood and Collections at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK. With a background in primary and nursery education, she now specialises in understanding how museums and art galleries can support babies, young children and everyone who cares for them. Her work has a particular focus on connecting with those facing barriers to participating in arts activities, and the role of cultural education in promoting inclusion and social justice. Nicola’s doctoral study was taken with the Centre for Research in Early Childhood and explored young children’s engagement with museum objects and spaces within the context of museums’ civic responsibilities.
