2025 NYCMER Annual Conference
A Regional Conference with a National Impact
Welcome: Museums in Community
Monday, May 19, 2025
Join us for the 2025 NYCMER Annual Conference on May 19 at Teachers College, Columbia University. This year’s theme is Welcome: Museums in Community.
What does it truly mean for museums to serve their communities? Who is included—or excluded—when we talk about "community" in practice? How can museums create welcoming spaces that foster connection, engagement, and belonging?
Mark your calendars and stay updated on NYCMER’s social media! We will be opening the Request for Proposals shortly.
To be one of the first ones notified about the conference, and to take advantage of advanced sales and discounted tickets, become a NYCMER member!
