America has a long and rich history of national service, often turning to it as a powerful lever in times of crisis, as it did after 9/11, Hurricane Katrina and the Great Recession of 2008. The pandemic is ravaging communities of color and laying bare the inequities in our social safety nets. Now should be no different.

These are the slides and notes for the talk I gave at the American Alliance of Museums conference on Monday, April 27 about the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History. When I became the director of the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History four years ago, I took this work with me. They talked about community building.

Since then, Stacey has become an indispensable member of our staff, leading our community programs and inspiring us to think in new ways about how we can build social capital in our community. I chose to focus my thesis on Community and Civic Engagement in Museum Programs.

It is a time where a lot of organizations are going through an intergenerational transfer of leadership, and a lot has been written about what does that mean? I grew up in Florida in a pretty narrow-minded, and very closed South Asian community. It is a much more complex and nuanced history. That actually wasn't the case at all.

Summertime concerts at the history museum? It does not include facility rentals, nor people who might see us at a community event but not directly engage. Why do we count participants in an art activity for families at a community center but not members of the Rotary Club to whom I give a presentation about the museum?
