International Museum Weekend

International Museum Weekend

I stumbled across this annual event which has been turned into an amateur radio special event and is spread over a number of weekends in Jun.  

Looking at the list of participants at http://radio-amateur-events.org/IMW/stations.htm it seems a mainly UK based event, but it is touted as being an international one.  

Maybe some of our ZL museums should have a special event station and call sign.  MOTAT in Auckland is definitely one that comes to mind.  Even our local little Settlers' Museum could be activated.

Here are a couple of sites for the event :
