The symposium begins with opening remarks from UNMAM Associate Director Devin E. Geraci at 11:00 AM. Concurrent sessions will occur throughout the day, inviting you to discover various positions within museums, ranging from traditional roles such as curators, directors, and educators, alongside specialized areas like exhibition design, grant writing, marketing, and technology.
