Virtual Lunch & Learn: Pivoting to and Staying in the Digital Space
How to keep your audience engaged and growing!

Kara V. Leinfelder, NC Museum of History AssociatesJoin us for our first event of 2022 with a virtual lunch and learn featuring Kara V. Leinfelder, Managing and Creative Director for the NC Museum of History Associates. Kara will discuss the challenges her group faced moving so quickly and heavily into the digital space, how much they relied on marketing and visual identity, and how the NC Museum of History determined their successes. They were able to not only continue to engage their existing audiences but also develop new ones through creative and strategic planning and conversation. With the upcoming return to in-person programs and events, the necessity of digital will not just dissipate. Kara and her team now find themselves, like many of our cultural counterparts, in this new position to continue to serve audiences in North Carolina and around the world.
