But the arguments trotted out represent how far we have to go in articulating the public value of arts institutions (and helping our supporters speak the same language). It's like a giant, free, no-holds-barred focus group that represents a true range of arts users and non-users. This perspective was rampant in Michigan.

Others are artistic projects—Jonathon Coulton’s popular Thing a Week (he writes a song each week), Scott McCloud's " Morning Improv " comics. Which leads me to feel that an artist can only feel comfortable exposing his/her process if either a. But for new artists… Process Exposure may derail people from ever achieving greatness.

Articulate it clearly. They don't have to be professional artists, or wealthy donors, or famous historians to contribute. It's powerful to have a big vision for where you are going. But if you throw every punch, tilt at every windmill, you'll end up exhausted and frustrated. So start with a goal. That's a small step towards inclusion.

While requiring people to build their virtual designs required more work (and expertise) from them, it also allowed them to clearly articulate their designs and to engage on a more professional, specific level about the exhibits.

I had a healthy second life as a slam poet, and I loved the world of artists and performance. Articulate what you can do for your organization, not what you can do generally. I met lovely people in engineering, but I found the work to be too detail-oriented and microscopic in scope to satisfy me. You have to tell them what you want.

You could never convince my boys, at the adventurous ages of 4 and 6, that they are not the best artists, singers, dancers, ninjas, runners, hide-and-seekers, Spiderman or the Pumpkin King. They simply ARE.

You enter a seed artist or song (or several) and Pandora starts playing music that it interprets as related in some way to your selections. It doesn’t just group artists together and play music by similar musicians. Could I have articulated that at the start? Turns out that I enjoy songs with “extensive vamping.” From experts!

So I just want to say, by the way, that artists have left a huge legacy around San Francisco during this pandemic. And then you also need to be able to articulate that, without fundraising or without a steady income from which to draw upon, you could cease to exist. Why is that?

Few were able to articulate a response policy that wasn't based entirely on the volume of the ire raised. Museum professionals don’t have the tools to make wise decisions about when and why to self-censor. Many people mentioned the intelligent design/evolution debate, raising examples of angry homeschoolers and religious groups.
