In 2020, we were not hosting in-person events, our offices were closed (some still are) and most volunteer activity came to a complete halt. It was time to dig deeper with volunteers to find out how they might be interested in engaging with us. This pandemic is our time to experiment with how we engage volunteers.

This post was written by Jaime Kopke , the founder/director of the Denver Community Museum , a pop-up community-generated institution that ran from Oct 2008-April 2009. The Denver Community Museum (DCM) was a grassroots operation in almost every sense. The DCM was a place that was part science experiment.

This week, the Denver Art Museum (DAM) opened a new temporary exhibition called The Psychedelic Experience , featuring rock posters from San Francisco in the heyday of Bill Graham and electric kool-aid. I happened to be at DAM for work and got to experience this amazing exhibit. It is an incredible museum experience.

We've increased attendance among people who are new to museum experiences. Focus on family audiences.

In Denver there's another way. Billed as "part art museum, part public forum," The Lab at Belmar is a contemporary art space in a suburban Denver development. The point of Belmar was to replace a dying shopping mall with a vital city center for Lakewood, an inner suburb of Denver, and art seemed to be part of that concept.

This seems a little ungenerous to museums; while institutions may bestow more love upon wealthy, elderly donors than the general visiting public, museums have actively courted mass audiences for years. Community centers don't ask you to cough up a $20 every time you come to hang out. Make time for staff to hang out with visitors.

For us, annual attendance includes programmatic activities onsite and off. Why do we count participants in an art activity for families at a community center but not members of the Rotary Club to whom I give a presentation about the museum? For some institutions, like the MCA Denver, attendance is seen as a very poor measure of impact.
