Writing my masters thesis for Gothenburg University’s International Museum Studies program while also working four days a week as the Director of Community Programs at the Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History this spring was certainly a challenge but also an incredible opportunity.

Museum 2.0

OCTOBER 17, 2012

When I started this blog in 2006, I made a multi-media introduction to the concept of "museum 2.0" Venue as content platform instead of content provider: the museum becomes a stage on which professionals and amateurs can curate, interpret, and remix artifacts and information. The museum gets better the more people use it.

"If we start losing cultural diversity, we begin to lose our whole sense of community because community is defined by culture. My dad is the co-founder of the Global Center for Cultural Entrepreneurship. They also enrich the community's culture, and they use cultural capital. That's cultural entrepreneurship."

Is that a Zen graffiti artist? Networks can help us build the capacity to take advantage of different institutional skills. She also admits that shift from artist to curator is not an easy one for many nonprofits because of the way they are structured. Sounds more like a network than an organization?

One of the big themes in our book, The Networked Nonprofit , is the importance of experiments and not to frame them as success or failure but as learning. The whole idea got started a year ago when James Leventhal who is Deputy Director for the Contemporary Jewish Museum asked me if I would design some trainings for the local arts community.

For years, I've been fascinated and a bit perplexed by the Elsewhere Collaborative , a thrift store turned artists' studio/living museum in Greensboro, North Carolina. Over the past seven years, this exploration has been undertaken by a staff of artists and more than 35 creators each year participating in our residency program.

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?

When I first started exploring the site, I assumed it was mostly a place for charismatic hipsters and a few star artists with enough social media savvy and clever video production capabilities to produce enticing pitches. Why should cultural and arts organizations care about Kickstarter? The museum's page is much simpler.

If you think about what a museum curator does, it is very similar. What is content curation exactly?

Although fundraising for arts organizations has unique challenges—like justifying the need to ask for support from donors for your arts and culture versus donating to the efforts of front-line workers—art in all forms is something that every community needs. This includes summer art camps, museums, theaters, art galleries, and more.

Over the past year, I've noticed a strange trend in the calls I receive about upcoming participatory museum projects: the majority of them are being planned for teen audiences. The other three are cultural, and I'm not sure how accurate they are. Why are teens over-represented in participatory projects?

In almost all cases, museums assure me that they want to be in conversation, that they want to be responsive, that they want to “really hear” what people think. Sadly, it was the second story that was about a museum. When those spaces are factored in, there are more than 250 works by female artists on view now.

Betty and six of her high school English students founded an organization called the Girl Child Network. The little girls are part of a culture, the Shona culture in Zimbabwe, as maybe you know, uses poetry.
