Influence & Action: CAM 2017

2017 Annual CAM Conference is in Sacramento, CA March 29-31.
The 2017 CAM Conference will explore the responsibility individuals and museums take as leaders within their shared communities. Museums have a positive influence by taking actions that make a difference today and for the future. Communities look to museums as leaders to help set agendas that support their needs. Together we all serve as leaders to create stronger museums for a stronger California. Join us as we explore Influence & Action in Sacramento March 29-31, 2017.
