Songbyrd may seem like a coffee place, but it brings a lot more to the table, including a robust live music and event calendar. The hottest ticket in DC has to be the National Museum of African American History & Culture. If you can score tickets, the Hirshorn Museum's Yayoi Kusama exhibit is truly a sight to behold.

For instance, a large nonprofit focused on preserving arts and culture might segment its audience by location and focus its stories on the most well-known museums or cultural landmarks in a donor’s state. What is your donor’s giving history? Using giving history to steer donor segmentation is another effective approach.

In 1990, educator and cultural critic Neil Postman described a museum as "an answer to a fundamental question: what does it mean to be a human being?" Without an explicit "I" voice, the museum's perspective on humanity is oblique to say the least. Welcome to Pine Point is not a museum project. It tells layered personal stories.

When the music video was not focused on Mexican culture, no such change occurred. But each of these studies yields another useful nugget.
