Charlotte Van Peer

Charlotte Van Peer studied social work and art and culture mediation, which focuses on bridging the gap between culture and people. She has been working as a public mediator for museum M Leuven for eight years, where she is responsible for accessibility and inclusion, among other things. Central to her work is the philosophy that experiencing art is a right for everyone, but an opportunity for only a few.

Charlotte Van Peer will be speaking at the Museums & Public Programs Summit 2026 :

Visual literacy for visually impaired people

What does visual literacy mean in a museum of visual arts for someone who cannot see? At M Leuven, accessibility is more than just removing barriers but creating a fundamental right to culture.
