    Jun 11 2024
    What’s the role of wonder in experience design? What can the circus teach us to make our exhibitions better? (Spoiler alert: a lot.)

  • Beyond “Exit Through the Gift Shop”, with David Franke

    Beyond “Exit Through the Gift Shop”, with David Franke
    Jun 4 2024

    Do museum stores actually make any money?

    What are they really for? Can a store act like an exhibition? What does “cap rate” mean? How big should a museum store be? What percentage of visitors go into one, and how many of them buy something? Why should you get an expert to design your store, and what happens when you don’t?

    David Franke (museum store architect) joins host Jonathan Alger (Managing Partner, C&G Partners) to discover what’s “Beyond ‘Exit Through the Gift Shop’”.

    Along the way: rubber snakes, oysters, onions, and Mona Lisa ashtrays.

    Talking Points:

    1. An oyster living in a birds nest.
    2. New store in a new museum or a renovation to an existing one. Where, oh where to begin?
    3. The peeling of the onion.
    4. Getting the balance just right.
    5. Don’t forget that long range strategy to ensure you don’t fall victim to your own success.

  • An Economic Planner's Advice to Museums, with James Stevens

    An Economic Planner's Advice to Museums, with James Stevens
    May 7 2024

    Why is economic planning so vital to any new museum project?

    What happens if you don’t do it? What is “dark tourism”? Why do economists think about audiences? Can a museum have “ROI”? Which is more important, a profitable museum event, or one that advances a museum’s mission? What can economics teach us about how to make our projects better?

    James Stevens, AICP (Vice President, ConsultEcon, Inc.) joins host Jonathan Alger (Managing Partner, C&G Partners) to discuss “An Economic Planner’s Advice to Museums”.

    Along the way: double-edged swords, vocal impersonations, and the Museum of Forks.

    Talking Points:

    1. Know your audiences (plural).
    2. Be both curious and skeptical.
    3. Formulate your “mission test”.
    4. You’ll be able to take time, but not too much time.
    5. Establish strict budgets and fundraising goals. Then change them.
