As a kid, I was saturated by symphony performances and choral music. Maybe think about activities you could support that would offer parents a place for their kids to go and learn, like a movie series, art classes, or a small-scale concert. As kids become teens, encourage them to volunteer with your organization.

But I’d been scribbling notes for an art museum label post for awhile, and then yesterday, the NY Times had a review of a new show at MOMA, Comic Abstraction. And it ended with this: No wonder it [MOMA] ends up showing shallow, label-dependent art rather than work that offers deeper, more contradictory encounters. The review was harsh.

A group in their late teens/early 20s were wandering through the museumwide exhibition on love. When I walked by the first time, the teens were collaging and Kyle and Stacey were talking. I don't know what formed the bridge between the artists and the teens in this circumstance. Kyle had brought his baby with him.

Everything about the event--from the time slot to the tone of the content to the music played--was designed for that audience. Performances just for teens. I've started realizing that at First Fridays, when our museum swells with people out on the town for an art experience. Late night mixers at museums for young adults.

This week, the Denver Art Museum (DAM) opened a new temporary exhibition called The Psychedelic Experience , featuring rock posters from San Francisco in the heyday of Bill Graham and electric kool-aid. It’s a thrilling challenge to the traditional form of art museum exhibit design, and better yet, visitors like it.

This month, I'm sharing a few chapters from my new book The Art of Relevance in advance of its release. The Art of Relevance has a central metaphor that relevance is a key that unlocks the door to meaningful experiences (which live in a room). To get into this chapter, imagine that your institution/program/art is a room.

The chairs were cast-off art, reclaimed as art, available for people to take off the hooks and use. What kind of an art institution is this? It encourages process-driven performances and art projects. It takes the kind of risks that a university art gallery should take. They were there for artist talks.

We're always happy for more bodies in the door, but if supporting teens means alienating seniors, there's a problem. The article references connecting with young people via social media, at-risk youth via exhibit co-creation, and urban creatives via public art installations. And none of the museums in the park was open.

The recent flurry of restrictions that has sent teens fleeing? Imagine a music store where each CD lists the names of the last 20 people to pick it up, and what those people ultimately bought. I can just imagine the headline: CHILD MOLESTERS CALL ON ART, VICTIMS. The irritating design? Or is it the stalkers?
