Description

Activities
The proposed project will expand the virtual museum and site tour components of clio?s online platform. As a part of the project, clio will work with three area museums to develop virtual interpretive features and create three virtual local museum tours, which will include narration from staff, images, multimedia, 360-degree views from galleries, and links to information and resources. Clio will also provide one-on-one support for organizations around the country that would like to use clio to interpret their communities, museums, complexes, or campuses.
Expected outcomes
Clio foundation?s digital platform helps reduces expenses and eliminates technological barriers that hinder museums from offering digital content. Expanding the online platform will allow clio to support over 1,000 museums and cultural organizations as they reopen. The new virtual tours will enhance in-person visitation as models, along with guides, videos, and one-on-one support for organizations around the country. Clio will create jobs for two recent humanities graduates, providing employment and networking opportunities for graduates.
Intended beneficiaries
Clio?s virtual platform will have broad impact on museum staff and visitors. Museum staff will benefit from the one-one-support and virtual platform offered by clio. The virtual tours will be useful for families and school groups who wish to visit museums but cannot do so in person.
