Museums connect people with artifacts and ideas that present diverse perspectives. Whatever challenges our country and communities may face, museums will continue to play a vital role through the interpretation of different cultures, the facilitation of difficult conversations, and the presentation of fact-based information. The 2017 MAAM conference in Pittsburgh, PA will examine how museums respond to these challenges and opportunities today, while addressing best practices in administration, technology, interpretation, and collections.
