It will be one of the most engaging gatherings of museum professionals in years. It will also offer a whole lot more than just sitting and listening--because we've designed three distinct environments that will allow you to: Learn from key experts in sessions tailored to the theme Do nifty things in hands-on workshops Discuss with your colleagues in affinity group meetings Who should attend?
