Leading community engagement on climate change
Imagine a place where global climate challenges are tackled through the lens of local stories and art. Building on scholarship that frames museums as ‘lifeboats’ and ‘pathways’ through the climate crisis, this article demonstrates the unique strengths of regional institutions: their deep community embeddedness, local knowledge, and capacity for agile, place-based engagement. Regional institutions are closely attuned to the social and ecological s…
Being in and of local communities
In Australia, environmental catastrophe is part of our identity: the country and community have all been shaped by repeated droughts, floods and fires.The experience of the 2019-20 Black Summer bushfires was, however, unprecedented.It destroyed vast swathes of country, impacting places, lives, livelihoods and communities, and its duration and severity caused untold grief.These catastrophic fires occurred in close succession to sustained droughts …

It examines how these mus…

Democratising audience experience
The art museum, as observed by Duncan, is a ‘ritual’ space ‘reserved for a special quality of attention’ materialised in a narrow set of acceptable behaviours [Duncan, Carol. 1991. “Art Museums and the Ritual of Citizenship.” In The Poetics and Politics of Museum Display, edited by Ivan Karp and Steven D. Lavine, 88–103. Washington: Smithsonian Institute Press]. In recent decades, under the auspices of the new museology, the ritualised space was …
Revenue, relevance and reflecting community
Museums are judged not solely on the basis of their exhibition quality and collection care but, within a corporate model, they are also judged on quantitative measures such as audience numbers and, in turn, their financial viability. Programming has, therefore, become a major focus of forward planning and the basis for funding development. Blockbuster exhibitions, strategically placed throughout annual programs, have been a common way to increase…
