Hi,
I've been reading the discussion on this topic with some interest,
and --surprise, Kari-- I **am** a CPA, as you can guess from my
signature below ;)
I have explained before that I am doing some research on the local
museum for my MPA project, but even when I was doing the financial
audit of the Tas Museum and Art Gallery, I and other 'general public'
people were fascinated with the idea of a museum as an audit client,
compared to your run-of-the-mill agencies. I would have to agree
with Claudia that there is a huge untapped interest in
the workings of a museum--ie, the research undertaken, how an
exhibition is put together, etc. Further, I think that the more
people understand what goes on behind the exhibitions, the better
chance you would have to attract funds. There is a misconception
that museums just 'exist'.
