Museum 2.0
APRIL 12, 2011
May 22-25, I'll be in Houston for the American Association of Museums annual meeting and chairing two sessions--one on empowering staff to take creative risks, and one on alternative futures for museums. For people who will not be in Houston but would like to partake, the session on creative risks will be part of the AAM virtual conference , which will be streamed on May 23-24. I'm reaching the end of another heavy travel jag.
