Research Report: Digital Transformation

An assessment of grants supporting digital staff in museums. 8 Bridges Workshop/John S. and James L. Knight Foundation, 2021

Description

I co-authored Digital Transformation: An Assessment of Grants Supporting Digital Staff in Museums for the Knight Foundation with my colleagues Sarah Lutman and Greta Rudolph at 8 Bridges Workshop. The report was a mid-stream assessment of eight grants that funded digital staff positions at eight museums.

We interviewed all eight grant-supported staff members, along with the executive teams at their institutions. After consolidating and analyzing the findings, we outlined a set of key observations and recommendations. Those insights ultimately shaped a restructuring of Knight Arts’ funding strategy and led to the creation of the Knight Digital Maturity Model.
