Film: Jumpstarting a Museum’s Social Value

Wendy Wolf
Deputy Director for Learning and Community Engagement
Vizcaya

As Vizcaya embark upon their centennial year and new master plan, they are exploring how they as museum professionals value their institution, what their local community values about them and how history values Vizcaya.

What are the intersections of these relevancies? How can they leverage their value to serve as a community hub that is equal in statue to our elite identity as an international cultural heritage destination?

In this presentation Wendy Wolf shares Vizcaya’s journey and asks us all to consider the value of our organisations.
