The venues are the Wallraf-Richartz Museum & Fondation Corboud (12 November) and the Cologne Game Lab at TH Köln (13 and 14 November).

The conference will focus on the interplay between museology, museum education, game development, and game studies. Experts from all participating disciplines will come together to explore ways in which they can enrich each other's work. The conference's goal is to build bridges between these fields and establish a synergistic dialogue to enable stronger networking at a scientific level, the development of shared foundations, and application-oriented research. The conference language is German; the programme can be found here.

The conference is sponsored by the 'Spiel | Museum' Career Cluster as part of the Plan_CV project, which is funded by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space.
