Museum 2.0
AUGUST 19, 2015
One of my favorite comments on the first post in this series came from Lyndall Linaker, an Australian museum worker, who asked: " Who decides what is relevant? The curatorial team or a multidisciplinary team who have the audience in mind when decisions are made about the best way to connect visitors to the collection?"

In the 1990s, we decided we wanted to engage a teen audience. We created a teen arts council, invested in staff, and invested in programming. We discovered that teens felt uncomfortable in the galleries because they had to check their backpacks and they felt the guards were watching them.

I'm fascinated by these places because of their ability to attract diverse audiences to idiosyncratic experiences, and I'm curious how they stay afloat. From a museum perspective, I think there's a lot to learn from these venues' business models, approach to collecting and exhibiting work, and connection with their audiences.

The group was mostly young (teens to thirties) and nerd-diverse: a little bit punk, a little bit hacker, a little bit craft grrl. Participants who felt more confident modeled generous behavior and engaged others. This is something I strongly subscribe to--a huge percentage of any audience is more likely to spectate than to contribute.

When you embrace this donor-based model of thinking about the needs and desires of your donors, fundraising gets easier. Identify a business that shares your audience, and think about ways to support each other. For a self-esteem program for teen girls : Showing every teen girl how awesome she is. You never beg.

At the big one, I worked on a small project with teens to design science exhibits for community centers in their own neighborhoods. I learned to appreciate the audience reach of a big institution while vastly preferring the diversity of work and lack of bureaucracy of a small one.
