Museum 2.0

JANUARY 11, 2012

I'd say that these techniques support audience development, repeat visitation, membership, maybe could even attract new kinds of donors. Last week, the local newspaper did a really generous front-page story on my museum (the MAH) and the changes here over the past eight months since I started. but I didn't have numbers to back it up.

The busiest day in both 2011 and 2012 is our longtime community program, Free First Friday. And finally, and perhaps most interestingly, here's a comparison of Jan-June 2011 vs Jan-June 2012. I'd like to show you the data for the full fiscal year, but we only have this daily data beginning in the winter of 2011.

Stacey Marie Garcia came to the MAH first as a graduate intern in the summer of 2011. Visitors bond and bridge through participatory experiences at MAH. Collaborative programs with diverse groups bring in a variety of visitors causing new audiences to interact and connect. Cardboard tube orchestra at Radical Craft Night.

It made me dig up this 2011 interview with Tina Olsen (then at the Portland Art Museum) about their extraordinary Object Stories project. They designed a participatory project that delivers a compelling end product for onsite and online visitors… and they learned some unexpected lessons along the way. interview Museums Engaging in 2.0

Yesterday, a lovely article came out in the local paper about what we're trying to do to become a thriving community hub. She is also working to bring into closer harmony the museum's dual mission: to be a repository for local history artifacts and to promote art exhibitions. Lots of people now don't even know where the museum is.

Beth's Blog: How Nonprofits Can Use Social Media

NOVEMBER 21, 2010

I decided to stay a few extra days and facilitate a workshop on the Networked Nonprofit for local NGOs. I need to find a space like this in Silicon Valley for 2011. In addition to the Networked Nonprofit , I brought copies of books from colleagues that might be of interest to local NGOs. I don’t teach that way.
