Museum 2.0

MAY 15, 2012

Last week, I sat down on a toilet in our museum and found myself looking at an interactive station intended to test a “Legends of the Stall” sign concept for the restrooms. Some of my happiest moments as a director come when I encounter awesome things in our museum that I had absolutely nothing to do with. Sorry for the delay.

Residents in the three counties that pay the millage will receive special benefits : free admission to the museum and expanded educational programming.

This post reflections on the training design as well as my content notes. The concept of before, during, and after is an important way to plot out your instruction, getting a good understanding of the audience, and modeling. I had hoped to find a good example of a museum or an arts organization with a custom landing tab.

What happens when a formal art museum invites a group of collaborative, participatory artists to be in residence for a year? Will the artists ruin the museum with their plant vacations and coatroom concerts? But for museum and art wonks, it could be. Will the bureaucracy of the institution drown the artists in red tape?
