It still continues to be used on Twitter as well as other places. You need to publicize the tag and encourage conversation around the tag. Also, having weekly summaries that can be shared in other mediums can make the information accessible to others who don't want to participate on Twitter. I think it takes more a unique tag.

The general public is not a community. This seems a little ungenerous to museums; while institutions may bestow more love upon wealthy, elderly donors than the general visiting public, museums have actively courted mass audiences for years. It's a place you can use. Nor is "everyone who doesn't currently visit here."
