| Description | Museums in India are constantly experimenting with new activities – workshops, lectures, clean-up campaigns, storytelling sessions and so much more to engage visitors. However, there’s a slight difference in planning for an audience and engaging a visitor. Audiences are often at the receiving end, whereas engagement can include them in the process of Museum curation, and planning. How can we tell whether our visitors loved an exhibit? ‘Feedback’ – but is that about it? How about asking visitors what they’d like to see? During the Visitor Survey we undertook, an important point that emerged was that Museum objects don’t have labels or galleries don’t have signages. In this post, Anne Morgan, Head Curator and Archivist at the Imperial Valley Desert Museum talks about her experience in using visitor-voices for developing signages and developing as many iterations as possible to get to ‘exactly what visitors want’. |
