The Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums (MAAM) invites you to the 2019 Annual Meeting at the Historic Thayer Hotel at West Point from October 16-18, 2019.
http://midatlanticmuseums.org/annual-meeting/ What is the MAAM Annual Meeting? The Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums Annual Meeting is an annual conference dedicated to fostering excellence in museums by providing our region’s museum professionals with high-quality professional development, networking opportunities, and special events across a three day span. *This year's theme**Navigating Challenges: Cultivating the Attitude of “Yes!”* 21st century museums face 21st century challenges. We wonder what to collect and where to store the collection, how to integrate technology, and how to reach new and more diverse audiences. We struggle at times to balance agendas, raise money, change leadership, plan for succession, address crumbling infrastructure and/or new construction, and consider board/staff relations. These challenges may at times seem daunting, but there are plenty of models and creative solutions that can help move your institution forward. Join a group of supportive colleagues to tackle these topics and other subjects at the MAAM Annual Meeting in the scenic Hudson Valley. Amid the marvelous fall foliage and the Hudson Valley’s great bounty, in a retreat-like setting, we will tackle these issues and more. *View the preliminary program*: https://maom.wildapricot.org/resources/Documents/2019_MAAM_PrelimProgram_Final.pdf *Register:* https://maom.wildapricot.org/events *Make Your Plans to Stay at the Thayer Hotel* http://midatlanticmuseums.org/annual-meeting/conferencehotel-2/ *Room Rate:* Single Rooms $149/night plus a $13.99 Facility Fee*Please call the hotel at (845) 446-4731 or (800) 247-5047 by *September 15, 2019* to book your hotel room for the Annual Meeting. *Fee will be charged per room, per day.
