insights and museum-specific case studies, the book demystifies complex communication challenges into tangible strategies.
Museum Flack unpacks the techniques behind headlines and empowers any museum professional to advocate for their institution, safeguard its reputation, and seize the media spotlight for all the right reasons. Every chapter offers step-by-step tactics and real-world examples, transforming complex communications challenges into clear, actionable strategies.
The time to master museum public relations is now. Readers who embrace these lessons will champion their institutions, protect their legacies, and help museums thrive, even under the sharpest media lens.
