Explore the Program

Following the keynote, a full afternoon of breakout sessions led by provincial, national, and international museum professionals address the Conference's guiding pillars of Reconciliation, Inclusion, Community, and Innovation. With a special focus on experiences of the pandemic and building museums as inclusive spaces as we look toward reopening, our March Event has tangible lessons for museums of all sizes, subjects, and locations.

After a day of virtual learning, connect with colleagues as we close out the program with a dino-themed Paleo-Knowledgy Trivia Night hosted by the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum. Test your pop culture dino references and bust a few myths along the way!
