This document discusses how cultural institutions can better engage audiences through social media. It argues that traditional marketing tactics are no longer sufficient, as audiences now actively participate and collaborate online. It provides examples of how museums, theaters, and other organizations have successfully involved audiences by asking them questions on Twitter, letting them participate in creating content, and being present where audiences spend their time online. The key lessons are that cultural groups should start conversations with audiences rather than just advertise, engage and energize audiences, and view them as collaborators rather than just consumers.
