Melbourne Business School is delighted to announce the completion of two important research projects on branding and philanthropy in the arts sector.

Conducted by the Asia-Pacific Social Impact Leadership Centre (APSILC), and supported by the Margaret Lawrence Bequest, the two reports will be launched on 14 February with a panel discussion featuring Ms Carol Schwartz AM, the newly appointed Chair of Creative Partnerships Australia, the agency replacing the Australian Business Arts Foundation and Artsupport Australia.
The research focuses on the following questions:

• What is the public’s perception of galleries? Relevant, accessible and exciting or elitist, stuffy and judgemental?
• How can marketing insight help to overcome the divide between public’s and the sector’s own perceptions?
• How does philanthropy currently support the arts and is there a better model?

“Branding the Public Art Museum Sector: A New Competition Model”  and “Arts Philanthropy: Towards a Better Practice Model” offer new insight that reframe collaborative models for engagement to reposition and strengthen the arts across the community.
