Description
The Ackland Art Museum is the Univ ersity of North Carolina at Chapel
Hill’s local museum with a global outlook. Since our founding in 1958,
the Ackland has been one of North Carolina’s most important cultural
resources, serv ing roughly 55,000 v isitors annually. Our location and
programs bridge campus and community, and we are always free,
open, and accessible to all. W e prov ide experiences that spark
insight into ourselv es, each other, and the world. Our mission is the
art of understanding.
The Museum’s permanent collection consists of more than 20,000
works of art, featuring North Carolina’s premier collections of Asian
art and works of art on paper, as well as significant collections of
DocuSign Envelope ID: 0D2AFD45-3C8E-43B8-8720-60054E1F7869
European masterworks, twentieth-century and contemporary art, and
North Carolina pottery. In addition to permanent collection galleries,
the Ackland organizes four major special exhibitions a year.
Spanning all cultures and time periods, our collection strategies and
special exhibitions work to showcase the breadth and depth of
human creativ ity.
The Ackland is a v ital teaching resource that puts the art of
understanding at the heart of what we do. Using our collection and
object-based learning, we empower our audience to get close to art—
the familiar, the unexpected, the challenging—and connect with the
complexity and beauty of the wider world. In 2018, 22,000 of the
Ackland’s annual v isitors came to the Museum to participate in a
range of educational and public programs for univ ersity, K-12, and
community audiences.
In addition to the Ackland’s exhibition and education programs, the
Museum works to acquire, research, publish, and preserv e the works
of art in our collection. The Ackland also has a growing membership
community, and offers informal learning opportunities through an
ongoing and robust public program schedule for members and non-
members alike. The Ackland not only encourages close looking, but
also activ e participation. The combination of our v ersatile collection,
accessible interpretation materials, and v ariety of programs allow us
to offer engaging experiences for all our v isitors.
In recognition of our commitment to being accessible to all, the
Ackland permanently re-opened ART& in September 2018. A
dedicated museum space for students and community to connect
with each other, create, and experience art, ART& hosts artists’ talks,
performances, art-making classes, and much more. In addition to
serv ing as a v ibrant community and program space, ART& features
site-specific commissions by contemporary artists.
Ackland Director Katie Ziglar joined the Museum in July 2016, and
leads a staff of 21 full-time Museum employees and one part-time
employee in four departments, including administration, curatorial,
external affairs, and academic programs.
The Ackland’s National Adv isory Board (NAB) consists of 26
members and supports the adv ancement of the Museum and its
mission. NAB members work closely with the Director and staff to
enhance all aspects of Ackland’s programing including but not
limited to: enriching and caring for its collections; creating and
presenting original research and exhibitions; educating students and
the public; expanding the Museum’s national and international profile
and strengthening the financial footing of the Ackland.

Deficit/Surplus The Ackland Art Museum considers it good financial practice to carry
ov er cash reserv es from one fiscal year to the next. In this way, we
ensure that we are prepared to meet our commitments in such
situations as delays in receiv ing inv estment income payments,
reductions in state funding, and market downturns that affect
endowment performance or donation rev enue. In addition, our cash
reserv es include funds that are earmarked for specific purposes;
such funds sometimes accumulate until we hav e staff capacity to
manage such programs. The Ackland Art Museum will show positiv e
net assets to begin fiscal year 2023 (FY23). This surplus is restricted
funds that includes cash reserv es from prev ious years, the
temporary reclassification of some acquisition funds for operations,
and multiyear projects funded by restricted endowment funds.
Ackland leadership will carefully monitor expenses throughout FY23.
As cash assets from prev ious years are used, the Ackland
recognizes that expenses for FY23 and future years will need to bring
rev enue and expenses into balance.
Are you an entity of
UNC-Chapel Hill or

Yes
W hat percentage of

budget was provided

In FY22, roughly 22 percent of the Ackland’s total operating budget is
state supported, and less than 2 percent comes from Univ ersity
contributions. The majority of these funds are used to cov er staff
salaries, which makes up almost 70 percent of the Museum’s annual
expenses. No state or Univ ersity support will be used for the

Project/Program
Summary
The Ackland Art Museum would like to enliv en Ackland F.A.M.
(Families at the Museum) program with the addition of quarterly guest
artists from the community and a new mobile F.A.M. Cart.
Ackland F.A.M. is a month-long program with self-guided and guided
family activ ities that relate to the art on v iew at the Ackland,
occurring most months of the year at the Museum. Each month’s
F.A.M. kicks off with a Sunday afternoon program that includes liv e
activ ities in the galleries like story time, art-making, and interactiv e
workshops. During this ev ent, families can also explore the Museum
using self-guided activ ities like scav enger hunts and Family Activ ity
Kits, as well as links to online resources. The self-guided activ ities
remain av ailable for families v isiting on their own throughout the
month, something that has been v ery popular during COVID, as
families seek lower-density ev ents and access to materials that they
can use at home. The purpose of Ackland F.A.M. is to make v isits to
the Ackland fun and engaging for v isitors with young children (target
age: preschool to middle school age kids and their caregiv ers).
W ith support of the OCAC Grassroots grant, the Ackland would hire
guest community artists for an art-making demo related to four of our
Ackland F.A.M.s. W e would also purchase a F.A.M. Cart to hold our
themed Family Activ ity Kits, additional themed hand-outs like art
scav enger hunts, and gallery safe drawing/writing tools. The Cart
would make these materials more v isible and more easily accessible
throughout the month following the kick-off ev ents.

Project Goals The are two goals for the Enliv ening Ackland F.A.M. project: 1)
introduce young v isitors to artists in our community and 2) make our
F.A.M. activ ities more v isible.
W ith support from OCAC the Ackland would hire four local artists for
workshops/demonstration at Sunday-afternoon Ackland F.A.M.
ev ents each quarter. Artists working in different media will be chosen
to align with exhibition-based F.A.M. themes, tying their work to the
other activ ities and demonstrating that their work is part of lineage of
artmaking, enliv ening the art on v iew in Museum galleries. The four
exhibitions and artist pairings will be “Drawn to Life: Master Drawings
from the Age of Rembrandt in the Peck Collection” (draftsperson),
“Houseguests: American Art from the Art Bridges Collection Loan
Partnership” (painter), “Good Object/Bad Object” (sculptor), and
“Unsettled Things: Art from an African American South” (fiber artist).
A new F.A.M. Cart would be a dedicated, highly v isible location for our
self-guided F.A.M. activ ities, including Family Activ ity Kits with art-
inspired crafts; art-based scav enger hunts; and basic drawing/writing
supplies. Currently these materials are placed on tables in the lobby,
but when the Museum is used for another ev ent or program, they
need to be taken out of the lobby. W ith a mov eable F.A.M. Cart, we
could relocate the materials to another gallery and keep them
av ailable. This would allow all v isitors access to the materials
whenev er the Museum is open (or ev en closed for a priv ate ev ent!).
Audience Description The intended audience for Enliv ening Ackland F.A.M. is local families
that include children in the preschool to middle school age range.
Ackland staff estimates roughly 200 families per month would take
adv antage of Ackland F.A.M. programming (the number of Family
Activ ity Kits currently picked up each month). The Ackland does not
ask for demographic information for program participants, but since
the target audience is local Chapel Hill and Carrboro families, we
assume the audience would hav e similar demographics to those of
the surrounding towns.
DocuSign Envelope ID: 0D2AFD45-3C8E-43B8-8720-60054E1F7869
Location Description Ackland F.A.M. activ ities take place at the Ackland Art Museum on
the edge of UNC-Chapel Hill’s campus near the center of downtown
Chapel Hill. The artist workshops/demonstrations would take place in
the Museum, on the Museum’s Terrace, or in the Museum’s
courtyard. The F.A.M. Cart would be located in the Museum galleries
during all open hours. The materials on the cart would be a mix of in-
Museum and take-home supplies. The Family Activ ity Kits are
designed to be used in the Museum galleries OR taken away to
families’ homes. The scav enger hunts are designed to be used at the
Museum, as are the drawing and writing supplies av ailable on the
F.A.M. Cart.
The Museum is accessible to v isitors with mobility disabilities,
adhering to all ADA requirements, as is the Museum’s Terrace gallery
outdoors. W e also offer campstools to v isitors to sit as needed
throughout the galleries. For programs with speakers, like these
F.A.M. ev ents with guest artists, the Museum has assistiv e listening
dev ices for hearing impaired v isitors. Our printed “About the Art
Guides” are av ailable in large print additions as well as standard size
text.

Artist Description Ackland staff selected artists based on how closely their chosen
medium and style of work relates to the exhibition/theme of Ackland

How will the
project/program be
publicized and
promoted to reach
intended
participants?
Ackland staff will promote Ackland F.A.M. on the Museum website,
ackland.org, in both the general and member email newsletters, and
on social media. All public programs are also adv ertised as part of
the Ackland’s ov erall exhibition marketing efforts, which include
poster distribution throughout the Triangle and postcards (sent v ia
mail for Ackland supporters and handed out at community ev ents
and the Museum). Furthermore, the Ackland has a pending
application with the North Carolina Arts Council for program
adv ertising, of which Ackland F.A.M. would be a focus. If the
application is successful, it would fund a week-long radio package on
W UNC to adv ertise F.A.M., a newsletter sponsorship for IndyW eek
coinciding with F.A.M., and digital ads on indyweek.com related to
F.A.M.
How will you
evaluate the success
of the program?
Ackland staff will ev aluate success by measuring quantitativ e data
related to Ackland F.A.M., including how many Family Activ ity Kits
and scav enger hunts are picked up each month, how many people
attend during the monthly kick-offs, and how many people access
online resources related to F.A.M. Ackland program staff will also
conduct post-v isit surv eys with participating families for qualitativ e
data and feedback.
