In addition to being a virtual museum with pop-up exhibitions, The Lyme Museum has developed comprehensive and easy-to-access guidelines that are freely available on TLM website and social media. These guidelines focus on: rethinking materiality in museums, exploring art-based creative methods, creating inclusive physical and virtual spaces, and ensuring that lived experiences are amplified and celebrated.

Accessibility is not a fixed endpoint or a checklist. Instead, it’s an ongoing, evolving process that requires adaptability, creativity, and collaboration. It can sometimes be overwhelming ! Our goal is not only to model inclusive storytelling but also to provide resources that empower other institutions to follow suit. This document—and every resource we share—is a living document. We expect it to change, expand, and improve with time, feedback, and community dialogue.
