Beaches Museum 2023 Strategic Plan

The Board of Directors of the Beaches Museum recently adopted the proposed 3-year Strategic Plan for the organization.  Chaired by Doris McNeill, the Strategic Planning team was composed of board members, volunteers, staff and community leaders and was facilitated by Jana Ertrachter.  The group worked for 6 months to compile data, surveys and other relevant information to distill the next three years of the organizations work in to four main goal areas:

  • Cultivate human and financial resources to strengthen the future of the Museum
  • Spark and nurture curiosity, conversation, and involvement with the mission of the Beaches Museum
  • Create and foster an atmosphere of belonging and ownership for everyone
  • Reinvent and transform the current exhibit experience

Funded in part by The Community Foundation, the comprehensive nature of the strategic planning process will help to guide the future of the Beaches Museum.  The Executive Summary of the plan can be viewed HERE.
