When I started at the DAM AV was not in IT, but we have since moved it into IT since we share some similar equipment and there are some shared skill sets between the two departments.
Our AV department's responsibilities include: - Presales for external clients hosting an event in a number of spaces throughout the museum - Providing equipment and staff support for external client events - Providing equipment and staff support for internal (staff, support groups, board of directors, etc.) events - Occasionally they work with external AV companies that are hired to support internal and external events - Service/maintain AV equipment inventory - Run our 266 person auditorium including projection and control rooms - Consultant when needed on AV equipment installations in galleries to support an exhibition - Video editing for internal and external clients We have 1 FT AV Manager and 6 AV on-call techs that work as event support demand dictates. I am happy to discuss further, Bryon Thornburgh Director of Technology 720.913.0136 bthornbu...@denverartmuseum.org Denver Art Museum 100 W. 14th Avenue Parkway Denver, CO 80204 Visit www.denverartmuseum.org and sign up for our e-mail updates.

Hello all! So, how many of you have an AV department in your museums? If you have an AV department, does IT manage it, or is it a separate area? In either case, what kind of AV services do you have, and how many people are in the AV department? Thanks to everyone.
