This article discusses how museum professionals are shifting their professional practices of public engagement\rfrom social inclusion, accessibility and participation towards openness. Against this background we situate and present a\rpart of our on-going research in the AvoinGLAM initiative. More specifically we discuss a series of workshops conducted by\rthe authors. The key objective of these workshops was to collectively develop strategies on how to open content1 and data\rheld by Finnish cultural institutions, and how to open up professional processes for the general public. In the workshop, the\rparticipants from cultural heritage and memory institutions performed predefined group work. For example, they mapped\rpossibilities and challenges for engaging various audiences and participatory approaches. The main questions that we\raddress in this article are: How to motivate museums towards openness? What is the contribution that this discussion on\ropenness can bring to museums?
