Expansion and Infrastructure The upcoming construction of the Freeman Annex & Hormel Research Center indicates growth in collections care, research, and scholarship facilities, opening opportunities for partnerships, sponsorships, and funding collaborations to support this expansion.

Leadership Development Recent high-profile appointments of directors in curatorial affairs and education highlight the museum's commitment to elevating its educational programming and curation efforts, presenting potential for educational product partnerships and customized programming initiatives.

Digital Engagement The museum’s tech stack, including social media integrations and interactive tools like Instagram feeds and event forms, demonstrates an emphasis on digital outreach—an area ripe for enhanced technology solutions, marketing services, or virtual exhibition collaborations.

Community Focus With a broad spectrum of arts programs and public exhibitions, the museum maintains strong community engagement that can be leveraged for sponsorships, community partnerships, and culturally focused fundraising campaigns to expand its reach.

Funding and Revenue Growth While currently maintaining modest revenue under one million dollars, there is potential to develop membership programs, grant applications, and philanthropic support aimed at boosting financial sustainability and investment in new services or collections.
