Building relevance in cultural work

Drawing on examples from the London Science Museum, California Shakespeare Theater, and ShaNaNa, Jon Moscone’s book addresses how organizations can matter to the communities around them. It combines case studies with research-based frameworks and practical advice, placing relevance in a range of settings—from museums and libraries to theaters, parks, churches, and afterschool programs. The emphasis is on strengthening the connection between an organization’s work and the people it serves, with relevance treated as something that can be examined and developed across different kinds of community institutions.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • People working in museums, libraries, theaters, parks, churches, or afterschool programs
  • Those interested in community engagement and organizational relevance
  • Readers seeking case studies and practical frameworks for cultural or community work

Whether you work in museums or libraries, parks or theaters, churches or afterschool programs, relevance can work for you. Break through shallow connection. Unlock meaning for yourself and others. Find true relevance and shine.
