Nia Williams - Creative PEC

Director of Learning and Engagement at National Museum Wales

Nia Williams is Director of Learning and Engagement at Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales. A qualified teacher and fluent Welsh speaker, she has worked in the field of education in Wales for over 30 years.

Since 2012 Nia has steered the new strategic vision for St Fagans National Museum of History. This major redevelopment has Welsh Government support and secured the largest Heritage Lottery Grant ever awarded to Wales. She leads Amgueddfa Cymru’s strategic direction in terms of learning and engagement across all seven museums, ensuring public programmes are developed collaboratively and provide social benefit.

Passionate about people’s right to participate in the life and work of museums, Nia leads Amgueddfa Cymru’s involvement in the Welsh Government Programme Fusion: Creating Opportunities through Culture. She is also responsible for the Museum’s compliance with the Welsh Language Standards and the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015.
