They began by brainstorming potential events ideas and possible

sponsors for both the Official Opening for Maskerad/Masked and

supplementary events thereafter.
First checking with our Deputy Project Manager and Events staff at
the Museum of World Culture to ensure that their ideas were
acceptable by all they then reached out to specific local
communities they felt would have an interest in our project.
Speaking with representatives of various Associations such as the
Nigerian Family Association, and its subsidiary African cultural
organizations, Events was able to tie a socio-cultural link between
the masks and their source communities who now live in
Gothenburg.
Engaging local artists, local politicians and other faculty and
students at Gothenburg University for their key events, they
achieved a larger role for their group by offering to aid the
Interpretation group in the development of educational activities
that also entertain.
By pushing the envelope, and being bold but realistic with their
requests to sponsors, for time, attention and financial assistance,
they gave the rest of the class the feeling that what we do in this
exhibit matters to the local community.
