Toledo Museum Seeks 10,000th Facebook Fan
The Toledo Museum of Art has launched an online sweepstakes designed to solicit community feedback about what is “too good to miss” at the Museum.
“Throughout our history, residents of Toledo and the surrounding region have been extremely supportive of the Toledo Museum of Art,” said Kelly Fritz Garrow, director of communications. “With the interactive ability of social media, we want to get broad feedback and find out what visitors really like about the Museum, while also saying thank you for supporting us.”
The TMA Too Good to Miss Sweepstakes entry form can be accessed through the Museum’s Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/ToledoMuseum. There, entrants are asked to type in what specific aspects – events, galleries, classes, etc. – they like about the Museum.
The sweepstakes echoes the Museum’s current “Good for You” marketing campaign, and runs 12:00 a.m. March 15 through the end of April 18, 2010.
Currently, the Museum has more than 9,400 fans on Facebook. The grand prize winner, randomly drawn from entries, will be awarded:
- One family membership, a $75 value (membership can be transferred if winner is already a member or extended as credit to future year)
- Glass bowl from the Glass Pavilion Hot Shop
- $100 Museum gift card
As an added bonus for TMA’s Facebook fans, the 10,000th person to become a fan will also receive a Too Good to Miss Prize Package. Prize packages also will be awarded to entrants randomly selected for second, third, fourth and fifth places, including:
Two Second Place Prizes:
Choice of free family membership or $75 credit toward a Museum class
Two Third Place Prizes:
Glass bowl from the Glass Pavilion Hot Shop ($60 value)
One Fourth Place Prize:
Pair of tickets to an Art Hour glassmaking session ($50 value)
One Fifth Place Prize:

Winners are expected to be announced during the final week of April. For complete contest rules, see the Official Rules link on the Promotions tab on the Toledo Museum of Art Facebook Page: http://www.facebook.com/ToledoMuseum.
