Annual Survey of Museum Goers
The Annual Survey of Museum Goers is an affordable way to understand how your museum visitors' needs, desires, and habits affect the time they spend at your museum, and how those habits change over time. In addition to benchmarking questions, the Survey features three themes including: Imagination, Repeat Visitation, and Hope for the Future.
The Annual Survey of Museum Goers makes data collection simple and affordable. The standard fee is $1,250 for museums that send their surveys out to their contact lists no later than March 8, 2023, and only $1000 for museums with annual budgets under $400,000. After enrolling, we will send you a customized URL to share with your members, mailing lists, and social media followers. We’ll do the rest.
After we collect your data, your results are delivered in a spreadsheet and illustrated slide deck. Provided videos will help you contextualize and understand your results. To learn even more you can schedule a meeting to discuss your results and answer your questions.
