What do you need to participate?
Our online programs at Museums Victoria are run via Zoom. It’s free and easy to use.
Group setting
If you plan to have participants joining in a group setting, ideally you will need to have access to a large TV, smart TV, or data projector that can be connected to a device with the internet so that you can join via Zoom. A laptop or iPad screen will be too small to view the presentation as a group. We will send a link to the person making the booking which you simply click to then join the session.
Individual setting
We will send out a link to join the program to the person making the booking which they can then send onto up to 100 participants. Children and families can join from home on any computer or device with internet access.
