Hello all,

Please excuse the cross postings.

The Western Museum Association (WMA) supports museum professionals at all levels, and we want to help you continue to grow and shape the future of our field.

For our 2014 Annual Meeting, October 5-8, 2014 in Las Vegas, the WMA is looking to up-and-coming museum professionals and requesting submissions for our Second Annual Poster Session. This Session will provide you with opportunities to network with both your museum colleagues, share your ideas and projects, as well as build your resume. Share the work you have done on various projects or research, and put your name out there for the world to notice!

To help with the costs of attendance and travel, the WMA offers the Wanda Chin Scholarship. The Scholarship program is a vital component of our mission, and we encourage all students, incoming and mid-career professionals to apply today!

All the best,
