Are you interested in strengthening your museum’s governance practices, or want to know about the current governance standards? Do you want help making sense of the new governance questions on the Tax Form 990?

Then, come to WMA Portland session H1: Current Issues in Non-Profit Museum Governance: The Redesigned Tax Form 990, Wednesday from 11:00am – 12:15pm in the Hawthorne Room.

Jim McCreight, President of the Museum Trustees Association, Bruce Eldredge, Executive Director and CEO of the Buffalo Bill Historical Center (and this year’s honored recipient of the WMA Director’s Chair Award), and Jason B. Jones, Interim Membership Manager for the WMA, will discuss strengthening your museum while easing the burden of complying with new tax regulations.

The redesigned Form 990 contains new challenges for non-profits, and an opportunity to develop stronger internal ethical controls. Good governance can allow organizations to work effectively, flourish, and be better servants to their communities. This session aims to show why strong governance is important, and how it can benefit your museum.
