When we say we want our museum to be "audience-centered," what do we mean?

Ripley's is just a small symbol of the growing challenge for museums to compete for audiences in a growing experience economy. But that argument respects our audiences too little. Their shows have complex and layered stories, music, and visual effects. It’s not just eye candy; it’s art that isn’t afraid to pull punches.
