The American Alliance of Museums is launching new affinity communities in 2026! Organized around shared museum professional roles and identities, these new groups will help busy museum workers find their people, share their expertise, and level up their leadership skills.  

Join the AAM Communities Team for a Town Hall on Tuesday, April 21st at 2:00 pm ET to learn about this new initiative, ways to get involved, and how to engage with these communities both at Annual Meeting and year-round.  

Plus, the AAM Communities Team will spend time answering attendees’ questions. Have questions you’d like to submit in advance? Send them to aamcommunities [at] aam-us.org.
