Culture 24

Found through Twitter links: the UK’s own Culture 24 website. I thought this was pretty cool – a not-for-profit organization dedicated to promoting the arts through the limitless power of the Internet.  Culture 24 (formerly 24 Hour Museum) exsists to promote the cultural sector online and works across the arts, heritage, education, and tourism sectors.

At ASU Art Museum, we totally appreciate and support the idea of promoting the arts across disciplines; for us, that means also including students from as diverse areas as dance and engineering, among others. It’s what we strive for as part of the New American University model at Arizona State University.

And also, it’s really difficult to organize and manage the massive amount of content something like this entails, so bravo, guys, on the new website that’s easy to navigate get info from! We’re currently undergoing our own site redesign and know first hand what a feat this is!  Look for the new asuartmuseum.asu.edu in the next few weeks!
