Museum shops can and should be more than just walls of collection postcards and bins of branded pencils. With captive audiences, a link to the creative, and consistent footfall, shops in museums have ample opportunity to maximise retail potential by offering products that appeal to visitors and have a clear connection to collections. .

When you look at more niche nonprofits—like those focused on arts and culture —fundraising plays a critical role in enabling your organization to make a positive impact on their communities. The arts are important to modern culture and society, yet competition from other causes can encroach on the ability of your nonprofit to raise funds.

Once upon a time, there was a beloved children’s museum in the middle of a thriving city. The brilliant team at the museum set out to find a bigger space and ran a successful capital campaign to expand to a much larger location. Adults had as much fun as the children. It was tiny and well-loved. Admirable goal.

A year ago, I wrote a post speculating about whether events (institutionally-produced programs) might be a primary driver for people to attend museums, with exhibitions being secondary. Many museums, big and small, thrive on events. At our museum, about 68% of casual visitors (non-school tours) attended through events this year.
