Appendix
A Phased Approach to the Website
In order to create capacities for implementation and sustainable development, we’ve outline a phased approach to building the website. Each phased is outlined in the following slides. An overview is provided below.
Phase 1 Collect a visual library of members’ art
Phase 2 Curate the works into online art shows
Phase 3 Create capacities for growth and scaling the website
Phased Approach to Website
Phase 1: Collect a Visual Library of Members’ Art
Each phase of the website includes multiple workflows (WF). Workflow is defined here as an ongoing effort to complete each phase of the Project. WFs are not final and open to refinement depending on the agreed scope of work.
WF 1: Build a Photo Collection of Art
Photograph works and create a system of tagging images
WF 2: Member Outreach + Feedback
Talk to members about the project and facilitate focus groups for feedback
WF 3: Design Website
Collaborate with EA Marketing and member focus groups to design website
