The UNM Art Museum invites you to explore the world of museum careers on Saturday, April 27, 2024, from 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM.
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.

Following the schedule of presentations, join us in the Center for the Arts Lobby for a networking mixer, giving attendees the opportunity to connect with professionals, peers, and potential mentors.
