Hi Beth,
I started a Museums on FaceBook group a few months ago and much to my surprise
there were probably 15 or 20 museums the group. The problem with FaceBook is
that they don't allow organizational memberships. FaceBook found Museums on
FaceBook and deleted the group and accounts in it that were
museums/organizations. I talked with FaceBook and they do not seem very
interested in changing the policy. They only want individual (faces) as
members.
We had a lot of interest from people on FaceBook and many signed-up as friends.
So it raises a point that it could be possible to create a Museum Group with
individuals representing a museum rather than organizations as members.
I hope this helps,

Hi there,
Wondering if there any museums with a Facebook profile/group? Anyone doing
anything interesting on Facebook?
