Westmoreland Museum of American Art

The Westmoreland Museum of American Art will launch a series of professional development training sessions for museum staff that will result in the implementation of a visitor-centered and culturally responsive interpretive planning process. Training sessions will build the capacity of museum staff across multiple departments to use audience and visitor research and to integrate new understandings into how they shape the visitor experience. The interpretive planning process will strengthen staff resources to serve a more diverse audience and result in the reinterpretation of several permanent collection galleries as well as the interpretative planning for a diverse slate of temporary exhibits.
