Svitlana Tymkiv is a museologist, cultural manager, and researcher of museum education. She works at the City Museum in Lviv, Ukraine. Her professional experience combines theoretical studies of museum educational activities and practical participation or organization of such events. An important aspect of her work is the introduction of participatory practices, shifting the focus from the museum object to the visitor, the development of such topics as urbanism, urban mobility, and histories of everyday life. Her project at the Clark involves researching museum education pedagogy and methods in the United States and analyzing best practices for implementing similar approaches or programs in Ukraine.
