VAM27 provides a venue to discuss strategies that make museums relevant spaces and how museums have aligned community engagement and mission. It will also give space for participants to share local practice, discuss problem solving strategies, how staff support has increased, and showcase collaborations both in and out of the field. How can we transform museums into both revolutionary and relevant spaces? What kind of building blocks are your institutions using to make your space both revolutionary and relevant?
