Thousands of US Museums Could Close Forever due to Lockdown, a New Report Finds

2020-11-27

Eight months since museums across the US were forced to abruptly close, institutions have lost millions of dollars and are struggling to survive, according to a new report from the American Alliance of Museums.Roughly 30 percent of US museums remain closed today, and those that have resumed public operations are averaging just 35 percent of their normal attendance—which may not be enough to keep them afloat.The report, which echoes similarly discouraging findings internationally, is based on a survey of more than 850 institutions conducted by the AAM and Wilkening Consulting in the second half of October.The average museum has lost $850,000 to date, though the figure is much higher for large institutions. The Museum of Fine Art, Boston expected a $14 million loss through July alone, and New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art has projected a $150 million shortfall.To cope with the devastating financial effects of lockdown, 53 percent of museums have made layoffs or furloughed staff. The majority of those cuts have been to frontline workers in admissions, guest services, and retail. A similar number of museums, about 67 percent, have made cuts to education initiatives and public programming.Emergency fundraising efforts to bridge the gap have had mixed results. Although 67 percent of museums have been replacing physical events with virtual events, they still fell short of revenue goals by an average of 34 percent. That’s especially troubling considering that more than half of museums have a financial operating reserve of six months or less on hand. With such a small cushion, the reduced revenue from declining admissions and retail sales, combined with cancelled programming, may ultimately prove unsustainable for a significant number of museums.Although the majority of institutions—70 percent—did not report any immediate risk of permanent closure, 17 percent said they weren’t sure, and 12 reported a significant chance that they would close within a year—which could mean the loss of 10,500 museums.Source | artnet NewsAuthor | Sarah Cascone

Does culture matter? New research offers lockdown lessons for museums and cultural attractions

2020-11-20

Research conducted during and in the aftermath of national lockdown has produced a mix of highly predictable and quite surprising insights into how the British public’s expectations of museums and cultural attractions have changed.The study, conducted by marketing firm Crystallised, involved weekly surveys between 23rd March and 20th July, with one third of respondents having traditionally been classified as “not culturally engaged". The survey also involves respondents who are culturally engaged, but in “different, niche or less ‘recognized’ art forms”, to ensure that the team was hearing from people interested in a whole range of cultural pursuits.Perhaps unsurprisingly, people were found to have been far more open to trying new cultural experiences during lockdown. 61% of those surveyed tried a new culture sector in the four months of research and 16% participated in multiple online museum tours.It appears the role arts organizations played in keeping the nation sane during the pandemic’s first spike didn’t go unnoticed, as 98% of those questioned described arts and culture are essential.It seems the constraints of lockdown have also meant the public has become accustomed to enhanced digital offers. 84% of people surveyed said they want to see an ongoing commitment from organizations to share content online as a standard. 77% claim they would be likely or very likely to buy a monthly subscription costing up to £10 per month in order to receive regular, exclusive online content (such as events and interactive or at-home activities).Despite that positive result, the issue of who should foot the bill for cultural experiences continues to divide the public. 97% of the participants agree that everyone should be able to access affordable or free arts and culture activities; 72% agree that arts and culture venues should be free to enter; 47% agree that arts and culture should be ‘predominantly funded by the tax-payer’.Aside from admission or participation fees, safety is understandably now a top visitor priority. Over three quarters of the study’s respondents said they now viewed the following precautions as essential: contactless payment; visible, increased cleaning; posters and announcements on new procedures; hand washing and sanitizer stations; hand sanitizer dispensed to every visitor on arrival; compulsory social distancing at all times; and reducing usual capacity.Communications around such safety measures are also deemed important at present, with Crystallised recommending a “simple, open and warm” approach. Looking further ahead, the findings suggest audiences have an increased appetite for cultural activities within their local communities.Source | Museums and Heritage

What’s next for museum audio guides?

2020-10-27

Audio guides are an essential part of the museum experience. As museums are moving from lockdown to recovery, MuseumNext partnered with multimedia guide company MuseumMate to look at how audio guides are adapting to the changing needs of museums and their audiences.According to their survey, of the museums which usually offer audio guide experience, 75% were affected by the COVID-19: 21% have stopped offering an audio guide, 21% clean their handsets more frequently, 35% have switched to a bring-your-own-device option.Because of the pandemic, rental of audio guide in museums was also largely reduced. Most of the museums expect the rate of rental to return to ‘normal’ in 2021.The survey also reflects some of the latest trends in museum audio guide. For example, some museums expressed their interest of using their audio guide also as a tool to manage visitor flow, a useful feature at a time when the number of visitors in any gallery is limited by social distancing restrictions.Audio guides are important for both the visitor experience and as a source of income to museums. According to MuseumMate, over the past six months, it helped many museums switch to Easy Guide, which allows visitors to download audio guide to their own device.Source | MuseumNextAuthor | Jim Richardson

If You Have To Wear A Mask, It Might As Well Be A Masterpiece

2020-10-19

In the pandemic days, working at home means wearing basically the same thing every day, but another ‘accessory’ became the new field for people to express their fashion taste - face mask.Although many museums were still closed, their shops are doing a lively business with face masks that are creative and can be ordered online. The masks are usually based on art in their collections, and are usually nonmedical.Detroit Institute of ArtsYou’ll be surprised to find out some masterpieces fit the form of face mask, for example, on the Detroit Institute of Arts’ mask based on Monet’s Corbeille de Fleurs, the flora in Monet’s strokes gives wearers an Impressionist beard. No wonder it is the shop’s best seller. According to Eric Huck, who’s in charge of DIA’s retail operations, he wanted “to have a cheery scene on something most people wouldn’t choose to wear if we weren’t in the middle of a pandemic.”Milwaukee Art MuseumLikewise, Milwaukee Art Museum picked a design that’s less about beauty and more about mood: Edvard Munch’s The Scream.Peabody Essex MuseumThere are also face masks sold at museum shops based on themes of traditional witchcrafts. Perhaps people do believe in their magic especially during the pandemic crisis - The Peabody Essex Museum’s face mask that features The Great Sea Serpent has sold out twice.Source | nprAuthor | Susan Stamberg
