Art Organisations Research

I have decided to research the art organisation "The Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre" where they educate people from all ages about creative writing and put on creative workshops/events to inspire creativity and promote the arts.


My target audience for the Visual I's project is in the age range of 6 and upward, both male and female, in the ethnic background of white/black British. I have chosen this target market because it is the same target market as the museum, therefore the centre will interest the people that visit it.  


I have the idea of making either a publicity informational flyer, to be handed out in schools to promote learning or make an informational advert/video to advertise the workshop, which could be shown in local shop windows or in a public space. I have chosen these ideas as my starting point because they are some of the easier ways to advertise something to a mass group of people.

Action Plan

Below you will find my action plan that I made to help me understand when and why tasks have to be completed by. This is really useful to me because it has let me see the time that I have to complete the unit and what is needed to be done.Action Plan

The Brief

The local council and regional development agency are collaborating on a scheme entitled Visual i's. The aim of the scheme is to inform members of the local community about the availability and opportunities made possible by local arts organisations. They aim to do this by the creative use of empty shop fronts and useable public spaces and wish to commission work from students who are following creative courses. Social inclusion is very important to the arts organisations and they are clear that the successful commissions should address this issue. They wish to attract people to their organisations from sectors of the community who have not been regular users. The issue associated with inclusion are wide ranging and can be associated with age, impairment, language and cultural background.
