Leadership transition The museum recently announced new executive leadership with Andy Maus appointed as Executive Director following Sheila Hughes’s departure. This presents an opportunity to engage on strategic partnerships, sponsorships, and new program initiatives aligned with the new leadership's vision.

Community partnerships BIMA emphasizes contemporary regional art, public programs, and community-centered experiences, including BRAVA Awards and public events. Target potential collaborations with local businesses, foundations, and tourism organizations to co-create exhibitions, education programs, and sponsorships.

Visitor experience Activities like Treasure Trek and Glass Float Hunt indicate active audience engagement and interactive programming. Sales opportunities exist in experiential tours, membership drives, and packaged experiences for schools, families, and regional visitors.

Digital reach The tech stack includes web and media tools (S3, WP Engine, Adobe Premiere Pro, RSS). Leverage digital marketing, online ticketing, and content partnerships with regional media to expand reach and drive attendance and donations.

Funding and growth Revenue is modest with a recent small funding base. Approach for sponsorships, philanthropic gifts, and grant opportunities can align with their BRAVA Awards program and annual initiatives to support exhibitions and community programming.
