Brooklyn Museum: Community Network
The Brooklyn Museum is definitely a leader in social media usage because part of its core mission is building community. Social Media tools and applications just allow the museum to engage a larger audience.
The Elizabeth A. Sackler Center for Feminist Art's Facebook page is an exemplary model of how to continue the conversation and the movement beyond the walls of the museum to achieve an overall mission of dynamic education in Feminist Art.
