If you work in the arts, youth programs, education, or informal learning, I’d be glad to hear your thoughts on these findings.

I’m deeply grateful to the educators from the @brooklynmuseum.org, @guggenheim.bsky.social, @metmuseum.org, @moma.bsky.social, @momaps1.bsky.social, @newmuseum.bsky.social, Noguchi Museum, Queens Museum & the Whitney who generously shared their time and insights to this research.

The multi-pronged study explores teen–museum dynamics in NYC through: a review of the literature on best practices in teen engagement, a survey of 10 NYC visual arts institutions, observation of multiple teen programs, and an interview with Caroline Quigley (then head of Teen Art Week NYC).

Hyperbolic headlines often tell us that Gen Z (& Gen Alpha) are fundamentally different learners & cultural participants. This study set out to examine whether those claims align with what educators are actually experiencing, and to better understand how NYC museums are engaging the next generation.

Attracting and Engaging Teens: Lessons from Research and Practice Teens have long been a challenging demographic for art museums, yet limited data make it difficult to assess whether visitation is actually declining. In this study, I used a four-part methodology ...

📣 I’m pleased to share that my latest research article - 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐞𝐧𝐬: 𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞 - has just been published in the 𝘑𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘶𝘮 𝘌𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯.
