The 2021 MAAM Annual Meeting will provide an opportunity to answer, “How do we center people in museums?” This conference will address what it means to be people-focused and will highlight key examples of where this approach can take us as a field. Conference discussions will center institutional identity, staffing, public programs, collections, and community engagement, among other relevant topics. We will share examples of efforts to enact change, discuss the future of museums during and beyond the pandemic, and address the continued inequities that shape professional participation in the museum field.

Join us for 20+ sessions, affinity group meetings, and networking!
