Hello,
I would be interested to a bit about how events are organised in your Museum/ Museums Service?
Our events are mostly community focused, except at sites such as the D-Day Museum and Charles Dickens Birthplace Museum where we try and attract tourists from outside the City too.
Up until now we have had a set-up where one person co-ordinates all the events run by the Museums and Records Service, but different individuals have taken the lead on specific events. The Education Officer has been one of these individuals, has fed into the organisation of many other events, but has not had any responsibility for them. We also have a very definite divide between front of house staff and other staff, where front of house staff help to staff events but are not involved in organising them.
This is all changing, so I wanted to ask:
1. What kinds of events do you run?
2. How many events do you run per year?
3. Who are your events aimed at?
4. Are events in your museum co-ordinated by one person/ team? If so, is this the marketing team? The education team?
5. If events are not co-ordinated by one team, how are they co-ordinated? Are different types of events run by different people - how is this division made?
6. If events are co-ordinated / run by the education team, how many staff in that team are involved?
7. Are your front of house team involved in the organisation and running of events? If so, how?
8. how are your events evaluated?
9. Any other comments, useful titbits, words of wisdom!
I will feed back all responses to the list (just let me know if there is anything you do not want repeated!)
There are a lot of questions here, but please don't be put off. Just a quick response to a couple of questions would be very useful.
Kind regards
Bryony
