FRONTDOORS MAGAZINE | 49 NEXT DOORS BY TOM EVANS ENSURING The Heard Museum spreads its wings to engage broader communities hen the Heard Museum comes up, your mind probably goes to Native American art. After all, the Heard’s eight-acre central Phoenix campus is one of the preeminent museums celebrating Native American art in the world, as well as one of Phoenix’s best- known cultural attractions. But there’s a lot more to the Heard than just putting art on display. The Heard Museum’s mission has a broader focus, and its team is meeting that mission by spreading out beyond the museum’s walls and working to attract diverse audiences. “The Heard Museum’s mission is to connect Indigenous creativity to the world by presenting the voice and vision of American unity and artists,” said Dan Hagerty, the Heard’s chief advancement officer. “That informs everything about how we engage with communities, how we steward our collection of 46,000 objects, how we implement, design, build our programs — all of those things.” Some of the ways the Heard is going about engaging more members of the community start with the art itself, and the Native American artists who create it.
