2023 Schedule at a glance

2023 Schedule at a Glance
The preliminary #AAM2023 program is now available! Here’s what you can plan to experience so far:
- Interactive and hands-on programming and workshops designed to help you connect with your peers, dive deep into museums’ social and community impact, and leave with tangible tools and tactics to bring back home.
- Events and parties to celebrate being together and making the connections you need to thrive.
- A MuseumExpo packed with exhibitors ready to show you the latest and greatest, content and poster presentations, and meet-up opportunities.
- NeighborHub meet-ups where you’ll be connecting with other museum people with the same job function or area of interest.
- Free and reduced admission to area museums so you can experience all Denver has to offer.
- Experiential workshops at Denver museums during pre- and post-conference days so you can see local museums in action (and have a great field trip)!
