Diversifying Income in Museums
Event Date:9 June 2022 10:00 am — 9 June 2022 11:30amMany museums are looking at ways to increase and diversify their income streams. This online workshop will provide an overview of the breadth of different income generation opportunities open to museums, from venue hire to store tours, online events to providing services.
We’ll be looking at the pros and cons of some of these opportunities and finding out how the business model canvas can help you to plan for success. There will also be a chance to ask questions.
The online session will be held over Zoom and led by Rosalind Johnson, co-founder of A Different View, and an experienced consultant and trainer. With over 20 years of experience in the cultural sector she has wide ranging knowledge of income generation both in museums and the wider visitor attraction sector.
The session is open to all staff, volunteers and Trustees working in museums in the south east, but will particularly suit those in small to medium sized museums who are just starting to look at income generation opportunities beyond the shop and café.
