Eyes on AAM
No sooner do we dismantle our exhibitor booth at the American Association of Museums (AAM) Annual Meeting that we turn around and do all over again. At least it feels that way. This year’s meeting, held at the Los Angeles Convention Center from May 23-26, will be here before we know it. While our team is planning our participation, we would love to hear from our exhibitors. How can SITES best use the time to be most helpful to YOU, our exhibitor base? Do you most value the information on new exhibitions that we offer? Or perhaps the chance to connect with our staff the old-fashioned way? Let us know and stay tuned for more about SITES at AAM. |
