Description

Community outreach is an incredibly vital part of an art museum. The event planning and facilitation that we engage in allows for the public to engage with the arts and expand our reach. The Engagement Interns specialize in different tasks, from on-campus outreach to educational development and community engagement. To facilitate increased on-campus engagement, one intern has developed a survey for Binghamton students to generate feedback about potential policy changes and programming ideas that would generate greater engagement from the study body. In addition to tabling for the museum to get survey responses from students, the interns have planned events and coordinated programming with many different organizations, both on-campus and off, to create interesting programming that drives engagement. The education interns have led tours for multiple different community groups, engaging people with the artworks and art history of our exhibitions. The graphic design intern has been creating advertisements for events for organizations that associate or collaborate with the museum.
