Association of African American Museums Conference
The 2023 AAAM Conference theme acknowledges the contributions African and African American-focused museums and cultural institutions have contributed to the AAAM community throughout the diaspora through music and movements.
Please join us for the 45th annual Association of African American Museums conference. We will be considering the idea of diaspora, examining the role of cultural landscapes in shaping communities, and reflecting on how our ties to land and place influence the approach of communities and museums to our work.
AAAM 2023 conference is a unique opportunity for our community to come together face to face after a long absence. In this hybrid dialogue, our hope is that we can explore the ways in which our members have evolved and adjusted to this globally historic pandemic as well as once again connect and fellowship as a community.
Comments Are Welcome
Note: We moderate submissions in order to create a space for meaningful dialogue, a space where museum visitors – adults and youth –– can exchange informed, thoughtful, and relevant comments that add value to our exhibits.
Racial slurs, personal attacks, obscenity, profanity, and SHOUTING do not meet the above standard. Such comments are posted in the exhibit Hateful Speech. Commercial promotions, impersonations, and incoherent comments likewise fail to meet our goals, so will not be posted. Submissions longer than 120 words will be shortened.
