In 2016, the Detroit Institute of Arts’ Day of the Dead Ofrenda program was at a turning point. An opportunity arose to transition the popular public program to an annually scheduled exhibition which would provide increased staff support, a larger budget, and dedicated gallery space, among other resources, ensuring that this community-based project would continue for generations. In this case study, we share a brief history of the program, provide overviews of the museum’s visitor-centered...
Show moreIn 2016, the Detroit Institute of Arts’ Day of the Dead Ofrenda program was at a turning point. An opportunity arose to transition the popular public program to an annually scheduled exhibition which would provide increased staff support, a larger budget, and dedicated gallery space, among other resources, ensuring that this community-based project would continue for generations. In this case study, we share a brief history of the program, provide overviews of the museum’s visitor-centered practices and the supported interpretation model, and describe how the 2016 exhibition was planned and developed. We conclude with visitor attendance, satisfaction and engagement data, and reflections by some of the participants, which shed light on the impact of the exhibition, its importance, and the opportunities that lie ahead for the project. Our hope is to inspire other museum professionals to explore interpretive engagement and visitor-centered exhibition practices to create more engaging and participatory experiences for visitors.

- Abstract/Description

Over the last seven years, the US sector primarily concerned with arts and culture has increasingly focused on social justice issues. However, scholars have rarely empirically examined if and how arts management educators teach about social justice issues. Therefore, this participant-oriented evaluation investigated the efficacy of using service learning with a culturally specific arts organization to teach graduate students about social justice issues.

Show moreOver the last seven years, the US sector primarily concerned with arts and culture has increasingly focused on social justice issues. However, scholars have rarely empirically examined if and how arts management educators teach about social justice issues. Therefore, this participant-oriented evaluation investigated the efficacy of using service learning with a culturally specific arts organization to teach graduate students about social justice issues. Based on an analysis of the quantitative data, this evaluative study determined that service learning with a culturally specific arts organization is an effective approach to teach graduate students about social justice issues, as well as principles of socially responsible arts administration. Given the results, this study has implications for graduate curricula and experiential education in arts administration.

During recent years, a growing number of art museums and galleries have experimented with innovative approaches to exhibition development to create more meaningful visitor experiences. However, although commendable, their efforts to make exhibitions visitor-centered have still not been consistent, partially due to the lack of existing models for practice for these kinds of projects.

Show moreDuring recent years, a growing number of art museums and galleries have experimented with innovative approaches to exhibition development to create more meaningful visitor experiences. However, although commendable, their efforts to make exhibitions visitor-centered have still not been consistent, partially due to the lack of existing models for practice for these kinds of projects. This chapter focuses on supported interpretation (SI), a model for developing visitor-centered exhibitions that can help museum professionals better advocate for their audiences, engage community members in the process of exhibition development, and turn visitors into active participants who feel empowered to share content during their museum visits. The authors dive deeply into the guidelines for implementing SI, discuss prior iterations of the model, share lessons learned, and explore new scenarios in order to provide current and future art museum educators and interpretive planners with an easy-to-follow roadmap for developing successful visitor-centered SI exhibitions.

This quantitative study investigated the research question, what factors lead to satisfaction in arts management internships? Based on the results of the study, job characteristics such as skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback, and work environment characteristics such as learning opportunities, supervisory support, career development opportunities, co-worker support, and organization satisfaction are the greatest factors of satisfaction in arts management...
Show moreThis quantitative study investigated the research question, what factors lead to satisfaction in arts management internships? Based on the results of the study, job characteristics such as skill variety, task identity, task significance, autonomy, and feedback, and work environment characteristics such as learning opportunities, supervisory support, career development opportunities, co-worker support, and organization satisfaction are the greatest factors of satisfaction in arts management internships. These results challenge previous studies (Cuyler XXABSTRACT Hodges, 2016; Cuyler XXABSTRACT Hodges, 2015; and Cuyler, Hodges, XXABSTRACT Hauptman, 2013) that suggested that compensating interns will increase their satisfaction with arts management internships. The results of this study indicate that cultural organizations can significantly increase their interns’ satisfaction with their internships by assigning them meaningful tasks and cultivating a collegial work environment. This study has implications for the conceptualization, design, and management of internships in cultural organizations.

- Abstract/Description
-
Art museums are packed with objects that connect us to the creativity of human beings from around the globe and throughout time. So, why—in this media-saturated world that confuses fiction with fact—would museums choose to disrupt this authentic connection to humanity with a handheld device that augments reality? The formative evaluation of Lumin, an augmented reality (AR) tour at the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), revealed some compelling reasons.

Scholarly literature exists on teaching grant proposal writing in higher education settings and on the use of service learning to enhance this teaching. However, almost no literature is available on the teaching of grant proposal writing in the cultural sector and the use of service learning to achieve this educational aim.

This study surveyed graduate students (N=40) to answer the research question, “Does service learning help graduate students learn how to write grant proposals for the cultural sector?” In addition to assessing students’ acquisition of Grant Professionals Certification Institute (GPCI) competencies 1, 2, 3, 4, and 9, this study measured the benefits students gain when an educator used service learning to teach a graduate course on “Grant Writing & Development in the Arts.” The study also identified ways to improve the service learning experience for students.
