Taking place October 5-8 in Pasadena, California, WMA's 2023 Annual Meeting will be filled with an array of opportunities to share ideas with colleagues and contribute to a fun and creative gathering of museum professionals.
With the theme of CONNECT, WMA 2023 is an opportunity to engage colleagues and explore ideas that will help define the future of museums and the diverse communities they serve. With your contribution, we can craft a unique gathering that adds more voices to the conversation of how museums CONNECT people.
