About Our Conference<\/h2>\n

The conference will be held over two days, October 3rd and 4th at the Lunenburg Opera House, in Lunenburg, NS. This year’s theme is All Hands on Deck! We will have a diverse slate of programming and something for every museum including sessions on Community Engagement, Conservation, Financial Management, Exhibitions, and Reconciliation and Repatriation. We’re thrilled to announce that Canadian Museums Association Executive Director and CEO Janis Monture will deliver the closing Keynote on Friday, October 4.<\/p>\n

In addition to a thoughtful and practical series of speakers, the Conference will provide many opportunities to network with your colleagues, decompress after a busy summer, and experience Lunenburg hospitality at its finest.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
