The Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums (MAAM) is proud to present the 2018 Building Museums® Symposium *What is this symposium?* The symposium is organized under three inter-related themes: Vision, Implementation, and Sustainability (or Life after Opening) . The content of each day will reflect these themes across a broad range of museum sizes and scales, budgets, scope of building projects, disciplines, and collecting vs. non-collecting institutions. Who is the symposium for? This symposium is for architects, museum leaders, planners, project managers, technical experts, and all those who plan or implement new construction, renovation, or expansion projects for museums. Whether your institution is a small historic site under renovation, a mid-sized art museum planning an expansion, or a large children’s museum building a new facility, this symposium is for you. Building Museums® is an annual international symposium created, produced and managed by the Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums [MAAM] but is open to everyone with an interest in this important topic. *Learn more:* http://midatlanticmuseums.org/building-museums/ *Register:* https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2018-building-museumstm-symposium- tickets-41123276828 *Sponsor* (See page 11 for sponsor opportunities): http:// midatlanticmuseums.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/2018- Building-Museums-Program-and-Registration-FINAL.pdf <http://midatlanticmuseums.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/2018-Building-Museums-Program-and-Registration-FINAL.pdf> Please excuse cross postings. *Averie Shaughnessy-Comfort* *Executive Director* Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums PO Box 4 Cooperstown, NY 13326 Cell: (412) 310-7999 midatlanticmuseums.org | Follow us on Twitter <https://twitter.com/midatlanticmuse?lang=en> | Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/midatlanticmuseums/> | LinkedIn <https://www.linkedin.com/company/1987350/> ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
