Join us June 23-27 to exchange ideas and best practices with fellow Affiliates and Smithsonian colleagues. Help us answer the questions, “How can we collaborate more effectively? How do we leverage the power of partnerships to shape a better future?”
“Smithsonian Affiliations serves as a gateway to the wealth of opportunities at the Smithsonian, including access to speakers, exhibitions and collections. Our affiliation is playing a critical role in shaping what the future holds for our institution and its impact on the community.”
“The Smithsonian staff unequivocally support our programming ideas and our desire to integrate art into education for everyone. Their offerings of professional workshops, extensive resources, digital collections and annual meetings support our educational strategic goals while bringing forth new pedagogies and emerging museum trends for practitioners.”
“We don’t have brick and mortar displays but what we do have is an amazing collection of the best minds in the world coming to us – to our tiny valley and 11 rural schools because of the affiliation.”
