Underserved communities in Minnesota will feel that they are more authentically engaged in the future programming for the new MMAA. We will use pre and post surveys with participants in listening sessions and public programming and track growth and change in attendance at MMAA events generally. 2: MMAA will listen and change our communications strategies and curatorial processes to more deeply engage with underrepresented communities. MMAA staff will work with our advisory team to conduct a communities and curatorial audit at the start of the project, write an operation plan, and evaluate post project.
Outreach was made to underserved communities in Minnesota, creating the foundation for a more authentically engaged audience in the museum's programs. Grantee held seven listening sessions, and utilized post-conversation surveys to gather information. All conversations were recorded. Public polling was also conducted via postcard surveys at metro libraries to increase demographics, data, and interest. 2: Curators attended listening sessions in order to incorporate community knowledge and opinion into their curatorial choices. Curators were brought in on planning meetings related the We the People exhibition. Community feedback from the exhibition was monitored, in order to gauge the effectiveness and authenticity of the exhibition.
