Libraries, Museums & Cultural Institutions. Hours, programs, collections — right everywhere.

Cultural institutions get judged on small facts: are you open today, is the exhibit still on, does the program need registration. We build sites where those facts have one source and stay correct everywhere they are repeated, including in the AI assistants people now ask first.

The problem

The smallest facts are the ones that break trust

A visitor who drives to a closed building because the holiday hours were only updated on the homepage does not conclude that the website was wrong. They conclude the institution is unreliable. Hours, closures, admission and program registration are the highest-stakes content on a cultural site and usually the least well-structured.

The same facts now get repeated by search engines, map listings and AI assistants. If they are only human-readable, they get quoted wrong. Structuring them properly is the difference between an assistant answering "open until 8pm today" correctly and inventing it. For state and local government, the ADA Title II rule names WCAG 2.1 AA specifically, with staged compliance dates — a site built to 2.2 AA clears it.

Scope

What these builds usually cover

🕐

Hours, closures and admission

One source, structured so search engines, map listings and answer engines quote them accurately — the same discipline as our answer engine optimization.

🎟️

Programs and events

Registration, capacity, age guidance and recurring schedules, without a separate spreadsheet nobody outside the programs team can see.

📖

Collections and catalogues

Surfacing collection material and integrating with catalogue systems, so the website is a way into the collection rather than a brochure beside it.

Accessibility as mission

WCAG 2.2 AA verified with keyboard and screen-reader passes. For public institutions this is often a legal obligation as well as a mission one — see accessibility compliance.

🌍

Multilingual delivery

For the communities the institution actually serves, on the pages where accuracy matters most.

💚

Membership and giving

Memberships, renewals and donations handled as first-class journeys rather than a link to a third-party form.

Non-negotiables

What we build in

Hours and closures with a single source, structured for machines as well as people
Program and event data that stays correct as schedules change
WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility, verified rather than asserted
Plain-language visit information a first-time visitor can scan on a phone
Migration that preserves exhibition and collection URLs
A written handover so a small team can maintain the site

Questions

Questions from cultural institutions

Can you integrate with our catalogue or collections system?
Usually, yes — it depends on what the system exposes. Tell us which platform you use and we will confirm what is possible before you commit to a scope.
We are a small team. Can we keep this updated?
That is the design constraint we work to. Hours, programs and closures are the things that change most, so those are the things we make easiest to edit and hardest to get wrong.
Do accessibility obligations apply to us?
For publicly funded institutions, generally yes. For everyone else the practical case still holds — an inaccessible site excludes part of the public a cultural institution exists to serve.
