Every day for the past two months, a man has entered the largest gallery in my museum. It also complicates the question of what is acceptable in a museum. If an artist can come into a museum and smash stuff, what does that tell visitors? It is not acceptable to walk into a museum and destroy another artist''s work of art.

Fundraising Stories with “Low” Stakes Organizations that provide human service work or international development typically have very clear, recognizable conflict that seems high stakes.

Photo by American Art Museum Note from Beth: This week I'm trying to understand crowdsourcing and nonprofits, hopefully with a crowd of other folks. It is an open study/storage facility displaying about thirty-three hundred objects from the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum. We are storage, after all.

What does this have to do with museums? It is why in the great museum upheavals of 2020 no white male director of import ended up getting toppled. It is why art museums have greater financial resources than other ones. The big next step for most museum professionals will be the hardest. Here’s the thing.

But the Gardens aren’t the only draw, it shares a campus with several other organizations: a heritage village, an art museum, the Extension services, as well as the county parks department. .

and with it flocks of museum studies / education / exhibit planning graduate interns. I’m always curious when I meet these folks, who are about my age, choosing a different entry path into the museum world. The value proposition of museum grad programs is cloudy in my mind. Sure, it’s great to learn museum theory and history.

I had a vague sense of how conservation fit into their educational missions, but I didn''t realize the extent of the direct advocacy and activism happening every day. In museums (and zoos), we frequently stop the conversation with visitors when it comes to action--especially political action.

Inventory isn't a museum activity that inspires curiosity in many visitors. This summer, the Austrian Museum of Folk Life and Folk Art ( Österreichisches Museum für Volkskunde) is trying to change that. People often talk about non-collecting museums as the museums of the future. You can read more here in German.)

These museums work differently.

What if witty cultural commentators reviewed museums the way they do music and restaurants? If Anthony Lane turned his cutting tongue from movies to museums? If Stephen Colbert "reported" on museums at times other than during the TV writer's strike? It's painful. And instructive. And revelatory. And painful.

Museums have been grappling with this question for years ( here's a 2007 roundup of such projects ), most aggressively in zoos and natural history museums where staff hope to inspire conservation and in history/concept museums that focus on civic engagement and activism. No small task for a museum exhibition.

I read recently about an awesome project at the San Jose Museum of Art in 2001, Collecting Our Thoughts, in which visitors were invited to write the labels for an art exhibition (more another time). But it's a lot of fun, and it could be a great way to construct a personalized takeaway from a museum experience. Pick a plural noun.

The conventional wisdom on museum memberships is that they are "one size fits many" programs whose primary benefits are free entrance to the museum and insider access to exhibition openings. But what about all the other people who love your museum? Want to know how the Brooklyn Museum is answering this question?

Museums have shifted the focus of their fundraising to better address demand from donors who want to know the difference their gift makes, said Ford Bell, president of the American Alliance of Museums (AAM). Arts and culture – Giving for impact. Public society benefit – Diversification and impact. Environment – Connecting with donors.
