As museums and public history organizations navigate tightening budgets, political pressures, and shifting partnerships, building strong professional relationships has never been more essential. Gettin’ To Know You: The Art of Networking is an engaging webinar that helps professionals rethink how they connect, collaborate, and grow in a changing field. This conversation moves beyond traditional, transactional networking to explore more creative, authentic, and sustainable ways of building community and opportunity.

Through practical examples and real‑world strategies, participants will learn how to use informational interviews, cultivate meaningful connections, and confidently navigate professional spaces. Framing networking as a tool for collaboration, resilience, and long‑term career sustainability, this session empowers attendees to develop a personalized, adaptable approach to professional growth—one that supports both individual careers and a more inclusive, forward‑thinking museum field.

This webinar will be recorded and closed captioning will be available for participants.  AAM members will be able to access the recording on AAM’s website a few days following the live event.
