Hello, all and forgive the cross postings
We are presenting what I hope and believe will be a very thought-
provoking session at AAM. Since the session is at the end of the day
on Sunday, I am a little concerned that many people will miss it.
So, if you are staying at the conference through Sunday, please do
come by and join the conversation. The information is below. I will
be glad to share notes and ideas with anyone who is interested.
Best regards, and hope to see you there.

the challenges facing art, history, and science museums, and review
successful strategies to meet these challenges. The session will be
