Program Announcement
Making
Money and Meeting the Educational Mission
Wednesday, June 14, 2006, 2:00-5:00
PM
Auditorium, de Saisset Museum, Santa Clara University
Financial sustainability is a constant balancing act for museums.
Increasingly, museum education departments are being asked to present
programs that make a profit, a challenge which adds to the demands
already faced by staff. Presenter Val DeLang will lead a discussion on
the big issues to consider when assessing your education department’s
capacity for building revenue. How can you think creatively about the
resources you do have, and ways to build on resources already in place?
How can you realistically plan new initiatives that meet the
educational mission and make money? Come learn new planning strategies
for creating this new museum program "animal"– the program
in touch
with the educational mission and institution’s earned revenue goals.
Val DeLang recently joined the staff at the Monterey Museum of Art as
Director of Education, and prior to that served in the Education
Department at the San Jose Museum of Art for 13 years. She will share
findings from a museum wide earned revenue analysis recently completed
at the San Jose Museum of Art.
Please come to the de Saisset Museum early if you’d like to tour
the
galleries. Let museum staff know you are there for the Cultural
Connections program. The museum opens at 11:00 am.
