2022 NYCMER Annual (Virtual) Conference
Monday May 16, 2022
Build • Bridge • Belong
This year’s theme is Build • Bridge • Belong. Join us in a discussion on community empowerment!
Build towards a culture of welcoming and inclusivity across museums. Bridge the field of museum education with community advocacy and justice. Explore ways to create spaces that inspire an unapologetic sense of Belonging.
Our 2022 featured keynote speaker will be Dionne Custer Edwards, a writer, educator, and the Director of Learning & Public Practice at the Wexner Center for the Arts. She has been recognized for her contributions to the arts and culture field, to public service, and her commitment to diversity, equity, inclusion, and access. Follow her on Twitter, and join us at 12:00 PM EST on May 16th for her talk!
