\nHow Can Good Programs Be Sustained?<\/strong><\/span>
\n\u00ab\u00a0Programs endure when sustainability is built in from the beginning. Research suggests that the following five steps help ensure the ongoing success of your important programs:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Work hard to ensure the continuity of program leadership and staff.<\/li>\n
  2. Build public awareness of your program. Develop a short but engaging \u201celevator\u201d conversation to describe your project\u2019s impact to potential funders, community elders and corporations. How does this work influence the lives of its participants and the larger community? Use it every chance you get.<\/li>\n
  3. Budget funds to support the search for ongoing funding from the very beginning. This would include monies and time budgeted both to demonstrate impact (evaluation) and to heighten the visibility of the program to attract new funding sources. Think of funders as an equal partner in the process, along with the museum, the community group
    \nand the artist.<\/li>\n
  4. Engage staff from across your organization (and your partner organization) in both program activities and public relations events to build cross-organizational understanding of the program and support for it.<\/li>\n
  5. Build documentation into your projects from the beginning.\u00a0\u00bb<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
