The Art of Participation provides a retrospective on participatory art as well as presenting opportunities for visitors to engage in contemporary (“now”) works.

We talk a lot at our museum about empowering our visitors, collaborators, interns, and staff by making space for them to shine. Participatory work can be very labor-intensive. We have prioritized opening up to as many partners as possible through collaborative structures that scale. Building an amazing team. Naming fears, too.

It was even more useful to learn how participatory writing visions can be. You'll warm up your hand and get yourself in a positive frame of mind.

I was fascinated by our discussion, and Bob came to mind last month, when I was asked to write an article for the Association of Children's Museums quarterly journal, Hand to Hand , about children's museums and Web 2.0.

As I imagined a world without Nina Simon ’s Participatory Museum , I felt sad about all the visitors whose voices (and post-it note comments) weren’t honored. Giant collaborative tweetups show we like to work together. But every time a museum social account responded to another museum we saw this form of collaboration.

What happens when a formal art museum invites a group of collaborative, participatory artists to be in residence for a year?
