The appetite for digital content has burgeoned while audiences and visitors are unable to participate in person, with research indicating that appetite is here to stay. Has COVID-19 provided the catalyst to genuinely extend and expand the cultural experience through digital content?

In this event, Eleanor Robb from Tasmania’s Museum of Old and New Art (MONA), and our guest panel consider the role of digital in meaningfully extending reach and engagement, the perennial question of monetisation, and whether the conversation of revisioning digital is in fact a conversation about revisioning our organisations and audiences more broadly.

Panellists

  • Janson Hews, Head of Learning and Experience, Sydney Living Museums
  • Antonia Farrugia, Director of Marketing, Australian Chamber Orchestra
  • Emily Sexton, Artistic Director, Arts House
  • Sophie Penkethman-Young, Digital Programming Associate, Sydney Opera House
  • Eleanor Robb, Digital Manager at MONA, curator & moderator
