They attend sessions on topics ranging from collections and education to staffing and board issues.the conference also offers a large Museum Resource Hall and plenty of informal networking opportunities for you to talk with (and get ideas from!) other small museum professionals and volunteers.

Theme
Museums in Harmony: exploring the ways in which museums and their staffs, boards, volunteers, and communities can work together to meet the challenges brought on by changing economic, educational, and social conditions.
