Speak Up for Museums (& be heard!)

Museum advocates and professionals from around the country will gather for Museums Advocacy Day on February 23-24, 2009 in Washington, DC. This is an excellent chance to hone key “tricks-of-the-trade” for being an effective advocate for your organization – and museums generally.
Organized by the American Association of Museums, the first day of the program will brief participants on AAM’s legislative agenda and help build essential skills on how to effectively communicate the value of museums to public policy makers. On the second day, participants will visit Capitol Hill and make their case to Congress.
With a new Congress and new administration in town, next year’s Museums Advocacy Day is especially promising, and important. Register today.
