Museums & Cultural Institutions
Whether listening to an audio tour, watching a subtitled video, or using a tablet to explore an interactive exhibit, visitors prefer to engage with content in their own language.
Museums and cultural institutions everywhere recognize the diversity of their audiences. Translation enables these organizations to make authentic, culturally sensitive content accessible to diverse local communities as well as international visitors.

museum-quality translations
With more than 30 years of experience supporting cultural institutions, Eriksen has cultivated a trusted network of translators, editors, and typesetters who provide the special level of proficiency required by the cultural sector. Professional experience in arts and culture gives our linguists the expertise needed to translate specialized terminology with nuance and cultural sensitivity.
By making resources accessible in a range of languages, we can help you foster dialogue and encourage in-depth exploration with local audiences as well as visitors from around the globe.
The 9/11 Memorial appreciates how much attention Eriksen has given to our projects. Often with aggressive timelines, you always find a way to make it happen.
