Expansion Opportunity The museum is undergoing a major transition from Memphis Brooks Museum of Art to a new downtown Memphis riverfront campus with multi-year construction funding and upcoming reopening, signaling increased need for project partners, vendors, and touring collaborations.
Funding & Grants Significant public and private funding streams are secured, including $12M state funding for a downtown facility and grants from the Institute of Museum and Library Services plus the Art Bridges Foundation, creating opportunities for vendors, consultant services, and collaborative grant initiatives.
Regional Collaboration Grant activity aims to partner with regional museums on exhibitions, presenting a channel for consortia sales, shared programming, touring shows, education programs, and cross-institution partnerships.
Digital & Outreach Active tech stack includes AdRoll, Hotjar, iCIMS, Mailchimp, Constant Contact, New Relic, Canva and AWS, indicating readiness for digital marketing, CRM, donor engagement, analytics, and e-commerce or ticketing solutions.
Scale & Impact As a mid-sized museum with growing infrastructure and a shifting campus footprint, there is potential for scalable solutions in facilities management, construction project support, donor management, educational programs, and revenue-enhancing partnerships aligned with a new riverfront destination.
