ABOUT SHANGRI LA
In the late 1930s, Doris Duke built “Shangri La,” her Honolulu home,
on five acres of prop- erty overlooking the Pacific Ocean and Diamond Head. Shangri
La incorporates architec- tual features from the Islamic world and houses Duke’s
extensive collection of Islamic art, which she assembled over more than 60 years.
One of Hawaii’s most architecturally significant houses, Shangri La was
also the most pri- vate of homes, a retreat and sanctuary for a woman who greatly
valued her privacy. In her will, Duke set in motion plans to open Shangri La
to the public as a place for the study of Islamic art and culture.

Creating a Buzz: Rethinking Your Museum's Public and Community Relations Strategies
Hear about public relations tactics that create a “buzz” out in the
community and develop new audiences for your museum. This session presents examples
to show how powerful “word
of mouth” is in creating a positive image for the museum and getting new
people through the museum doors. Session attendees will hear about specific tactics
such as developing a community speakers bureau program; educating their board,
staff and volunteers to be PR “ambassadors”; and utilizing creative
media strategies to maximize press coverage.
