The Challenge
A premiere cultural institution, an enormous collection
of prized artworks, a magnificent, historic building. It
might not be obvious why the Detroit Institute of Arts would
need our help. But that was the problem: with no unified
business development plan it wasn’t obvious to the
corporations of the Detroit Metropolitan Area that the museum
needed them.
The Solution
A complete overhaul of the museum’s corporate development
identity was key to our strategy of communicating both the
value of the DIA to the region and the ongoing need for
funding. Highlighting the breadth and beauty of the museum’s
collection, our support collateral focused on attracting
new members, energizing current members, and artfully seeking
donations from corporations and individuals.
