What is a Master Plan, and why is the Renton History Museum working on one?
Like many museums these days, the Renton History Museum has been re-examining its role as a center for lifelong learning in the 21st century. A grant from the City of Renton has enabled us to work with Gyroscope Inc., a nationally known museum planning and design firm, to create a Museum Master Plan for the next 15 years of sustainable museum operations. Our Master Plan will provide a comprehensive set of strategies for meeting the museum’s mission—documenting, preserving, interpreting, and educating about our community’s history—while more closely aligning our projects to the needs and interests of the people we serve. The Master Plan will create an exciting new museum concept that will improve the museum as a learning environment, enhance it as a place for the exchange of ideas, and reacquaint the community with our status as Renton’s only heritage organization.
