An interesting article which looks at data regarding repeat visitation at museums. Many visitors listed their number one interest in returning to a museum would be to "see something new". I think this perspective gives a lot of backing to the importance of why museums should invest in constant rotation of permanent collection displays and continuous acquisition of new diverse works with modern relevancy.

Interesting and we’ll nealed piece from Isabel Singer. I also think that trust demands time. I mean build deep trust relationships. Following your example in the same way you need it to have a long term, authentic and healthy relationship with our partner. But this is something extremely difficult in the hegemonic current museum transactional-extractive model where all is forced to have immediate outcomes, quantitative economic measurable results, KPIs bla, bla, bla. Then we have this “fake trust” as a consequence. It’s very challenging exit from this Hamster wheel to initiate honest relationships with the community based on our vulnerabilities, uncertainties and fears as a museum professionals because we are (in)trained in the expert model where you MUST have the solutions for everything because you are paid for it, isn’t it? And that connects again with our deep rooted scarcity model where the word “resource” is naturally and automatically associated with money and time as it’s expression, And the Hamster wheel rounds again. Time must be spend (we use the term “invest” 😒) in provide short term results not in building long term trust relationships.

Recent studies indicate that museums worldwide enjoy substantial public trust. However, this trust is often founded on misconceptions about museum neutrality. How can museums foster more genuine trust with their audiences?

Such a valuable thought-piece.
These days, the art at art museums can feel less important than “engagement,” a metric that’s arguably more measurable—from a marketing and budgeting perspective—than beauty or cultural relevance. Indeed, many notable arts institutions across the country have hired engagement officers or directors of engagement in the past few years. Some have even set up entire engagement departments. Gamynne Guilotte at SFMOMA described engagement less as a particular activity than as a vision of how museums should look to interact with the public. “You can describe it as how we enter into an equitable and reciprocal relationship with our audiences that isn’t just transactional,” she said. “We are listening as well as speaking, employing tactics that help meet visitor needs.” In the post-pandemic world where going to the museum is no longer a habit, museum officials have found that, in addition to luring back the old crowd, they have to give new communities reasons to visit. As Guilotte put it, “Museums cannot be just temples on the hill, waiting for people to come to us.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/ezCQi2nD

📢 Conference announcement! Museums+Tech 2024 will be held at The Think Tank in Birmingham on Friday 6th December. The theme this year is: Who is this for? And why should they care? Would you like to speak at our conference? You have until Monday 3 June to submit a proposal via the link below. Audience-centred work is something that is championed in our field, but isn’t every project for an audience? We have projects which can feel like they lack focus if the audience is ‘everyone’, or hyper-localised target audiences which may seem too niche. How do we know that the intended audience actually cares, and can actually show the value of the work? https://lnkd.in/eJi7E7Hy
