Many museum professionals sense a disconnect between what they measure and what actually matters. Visitor counts that feel hollow. Satisfaction surveys that capture reactions but miss transformation. Demographic categories that obscure the diverse goals people bring to your institution.
What if the path to genuine relevance lies not in engaging more people, but in understanding and supporting the progress they're already trying to make?
Museums as Progress exists for museum professionals developing that capability. Through research and peer learning, we're building practical approaches to understanding community goals and measuring genuine impact.
