Building Museums™ Symposium 2008
February 28-March 1, 2008
Washington, D.C.
The Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums (MAAM) is pleased to announce
fourth annual Building Museums™ Symposium in Washington, D.C., February 28-
March 1, 2008. The event will be hosted at some of Washington's most
prestigious museums including the Smithsonian's Donald W. Reynolds Center
for American Art and Portraiture, and George Washington's Mount Vernon
Estate.
MAAM is seeking proposals for sessions that will engage museum professionals,
architects, planners, and other technical experts in a dynamic exchange of
ideas about key issues for museum building projects. Symposium participants
will enjoy opportunities to meet and learn from the professionals impacting
museum construction projects today. Program content will reflect museums of
various sizes, disciplines, budgets, collections-orientation, and scope of
building projects.
Building Museums Symposium 2008 is organized under three interrelated
themes:
* Day 1: Vision (planning your building project),
* Day 2: Implementation (making your vision a reality), and
* Day 3: Sustainability ("life after opening the doors")
Students and professionals from various areas of expertise related to museum
building projects are invited to participate. If you are interested in submitting
a proposal, please complete the form available at:
