[BCMA] WMA 2018 Request for Proposals

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

The Western Museums Association announces the *Request for Proposals for
WMA 2018 <http://www.westmuse.org/RFP>*, which will be held in Tacoma,
Washington on October 21-24. With the theme of INSPIRE, The WMA is
requesting session proposals that address how museums can inspire their
staff, community, and the world to take action, work towards change, and
promote unity.



Through the theme of INSPIRE, we will focus on the ways museums inspire
action, change, and unity.

   -

   How can museums inspire communities to take action?
   -

   How can museums be agents of social change / social justice?
   -

   How can museums increase diversity in their exhibits, programming, and
   museum staff/boards?
   -

   What cross-sector, unconventional partnerships can be formed between
   museums and other organizations?
   -

   How can we make museums more inclusive places?
