Permalink: https://www.eventscribe.com/2019/AAMers/fsPopup.asp?mode=presInfo&PresentationID=526120

What do we really know about outreach strategies for traditionally underserved communities.? This poster session will present results from the evaluation of Inside|Out, an outreach program funded by the Knight Foundation that brings reproductions of artworks from six museums’ collections to outdoor community venues. The presentation will emphasize the “how” and “why” of these results by contextualizing them within an understanding of how the program was planned and implemented.

Learning Objectives:

• Explain the opportunities and pitfalls when planning and implementing museum outreach programs in traditionally underrepresented communities.
• Describe the impact of an evaluation of an outreach program among communities served in five cities.
• Apply lessons learned in efforts to reach out to communities to develop new relationships.
