Having multiple and easy access points to government information can help citizens identify opportunities to seek arts experiences, can help artists find support for arts-related endeavors, and can spark conversations with nonprofit and private-sector partners.<\/p>\n<p>Subscribers of DCA and LA Islam Arts Facebook pages and Twitter accounts can receive updated information related to the department&#8217;s programming and more broadly about arts and culture in Los Angeles. Through these portals, resident users can receive event invites, news releases, and discussion topics.<\/p>\n<h4>Increasing Access Across Geography<\/h4>\n<p>Since LA is a vast city, digital access to information could mitigate the distance and traffic that citizens have to overcome to acquire information related to the department. The breadth metric can be considered in geographical terms. Specifically, we can look at where our social media followers are located throughout the greater Los Angeles area to see how digital access to information can better serve\u00a0remote areas.<\/p>\n<p>The distribution of our Twitter and Facebook followers in different areas of the LA metropolitan area indicates locales of new access points to our information.<\/p>\n<p>DCA Facebook page has followers\u00a0across the Los Angeles County.<\/p>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/public.tableausoftware.com\/javascripts\/api\/viz_v1.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"tableauPlaceholder\" style=\"width: 744px; height: 609px;\"><noscript><a href='#'><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" alt='DCA FB Fans ' src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/Li\/LikesMapDCAPage\/DCAFBFans\/1_rss.png?w=840&#038;ssl=1\" style='border: none' \/><\/a><\/noscript><object class=\"tableauViz\" style=\"display: none;\" width=\"744\" height=\"609\"><param name=\"host_url\" value=\"https%3A%2F%2Fpublic.tableausoftware.com%2F\" \/><param name=\"site_root\" value=\"\" \/><param name=\"name\" value=\"LikesMapDCAPage\/DCAFBFans\" \/><param name=\"tabs\" value=\"no\" \/><param name=\"toolbar\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"static_image\" value=\"https:\/\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/Li\/LikesMapDCAPage\/DCAFBFans\/1.png\" \/><param name=\"animate_transition\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_static_image\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_spinner\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_overlay\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_count\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"showVizHome\" value=\"no\" \/><\/object><\/div>\n<p>\u00a0 Our followers on Twitter are distributed throughout the LA region: <a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dcaredesign.org\/socialreport\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Tweeps-Map-LA.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-85 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dcaredesign.org\/socialreport\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Tweeps-Map-LA.png?resize=764%2C380\" alt=\"Tweeps Map LA\" width=\"764\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dcaredesign.org\/socialreport\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Tweeps-Map-LA.png?w=764&amp;ssl=1 764w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/dcaredesign.org\/socialreport\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Tweeps-Map-LA.png?resize=300%2C149&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 764px) 100vw, 764px\" \/><\/a> The Facebook page for the LA Islam Arts Initiative has followers throughout the LA region too.<script src=\"https:\/\/public.tableausoftware.com\/javascripts\/api\/viz_v1.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"tableauPlaceholder\" style=\"width: 744px; height: 609px;\"><noscript><a href='#'><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" alt='Islam Arts FB Fans ' src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/Li\/LikesMapDCAPage\/IslamArtsFBFans\/1_rss.png?w=840&#038;ssl=1\" style='border: none' \/><\/a><\/noscript><object class=\"tableauViz\" style=\"display: none;\" width=\"744\" height=\"609\"><param name=\"host_url\" value=\"https%3A%2F%2Fpublic.tableausoftware.com%2F\" \/><param name=\"site_root\" value=\"\" \/><param name=\"name\" value=\"LikesMapDCAPage\/IslamArtsFBFans\" \/><param name=\"tabs\" value=\"no\" \/><param name=\"toolbar\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"static_image\" value=\"https:\/\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/Li\/LikesMapDCAPage\/IslamArtsFBFans\/1.png\" \/><param name=\"animate_transition\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_static_image\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_spinner\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_overlay\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_count\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"showVizHome\" value=\"no\" \/><\/object><\/div>\n<p><strong>Recommendation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Establish media relationships with social media hubs related to different areas and neighborhoods throughout Los Angeles. These information hubs may include both formal channels like the elected council district or neighborhood district offices as well as informal channels like blogs, individual event curators. To find out local information hubs, conduct an\u00a0informal survey that asks followers where and how they obtain arts information.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, work with DCA programming staff to develop a strategy to distribute\u00a0neighborhood or\u00a0locale-specific information. Highlighting area-specific content to local audiences,\u00a0either using a place-based hashtag or sending content through local partners, can\u00a0encourage participation and visibility of DCA programming.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Increasing Access Across Language Differences<\/h4>\n<p>Los Angeles is a multicultural city. We aim to provide services for\u00a0this multicultural city by engaging with our residents and visitors of\u00a0various language backgrounds. With thoughtful content and form strategies, social media can be leveraged to reach individuals of various language groups.<\/p>\n<p>The language group analysis of followers on social media can be an indicator of which populations are currently receiving DCA content.\u00a0Language can be considered as a type of entry point into our content. Language barriers are, in essence, social barriers to our information. Our Facebook analysis shows that English speaking individuals make up the largest language group and the second largest language is Spanish.<\/p>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/public.tableausoftware.com\/javascripts\/api\/viz_v1.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"tableauPlaceholder\" style=\"width: 744px; height: 609px;\"><noscript><a href='#'><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" alt='DCA FB Languages ' src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/DC\/DCAFacebookLanguageBubble\/DCAFBLanguages\/1_rss.png?w=840&#038;ssl=1\" style='border: none' \/><\/a><\/noscript><object class=\"tableauViz\" style=\"display: none;\" width=\"744\" height=\"609\"><param name=\"host_url\" value=\"https%3A%2F%2Fpublic.tableausoftware.com%2F\" \/><param name=\"site_root\" value=\"\" \/><param name=\"name\" value=\"DCAFacebookLanguageBubble\/DCAFBLanguages\" \/><param name=\"tabs\" value=\"no\" \/><param name=\"toolbar\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"static_image\" value=\"https:\/\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/DC\/DCAFacebookLanguageBubble\/DCAFBLanguages\/1.png\" \/><param name=\"animate_transition\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_static_image\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_spinner\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_overlay\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_count\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"showVizHome\" value=\"no\" \/><\/object><\/div>\n<p>A similar pattern is revealed related to the followers of the LA Islam Arts Initiative Facebook page. \u00a0<script src=\"https:\/\/public.tableausoftware.com\/javascripts\/api\/viz_v1.js\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"tableauPlaceholder\" style=\"width: 744px; height: 609px;\"><noscript><a href='#'><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" alt='Islam Arts Languages ' src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/DC\/DCAFacebookLanguageBubble\/IslamArtsLanguages\/1_rss.png?w=840&#038;ssl=1\" style='border: none' \/><\/a><\/noscript><object class=\"tableauViz\" style=\"display: none;\" width=\"744\" height=\"609\"><param name=\"host_url\" value=\"https%3A%2F%2Fpublic.tableausoftware.com%2F\" \/><param name=\"site_root\" value=\"\" \/><param name=\"name\" value=\"DCAFacebookLanguageBubble\/IslamArtsLanguages\" \/><param name=\"tabs\" value=\"no\" \/><param name=\"toolbar\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"static_image\" value=\"https:\/\/publicrevizit.tableausoftware.com\/static\/images\/DC\/DCAFacebookLanguageBubble\/IslamArtsLanguages\/1.png\" \/><param name=\"animate_transition\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_static_image\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_spinner\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_overlay\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"display_count\" value=\"yes\" \/><param name=\"showVizHome\" value=\"no\" \/><\/object><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommendation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Develop a multilingual social media content strategy that engages with Spanish-speaking citizens, the second largest language group in Los Angeles, and other non-English speaking language groups.\u00a0This strategy should provide guidance on how to reach non-English speakers based on programming and related stakeholders.
