CurCom Seeks Colleagues to Present Sessions at the 2010 AAM Conference
It seems like the conference in Philadelphia has only just passed but it is already time to
begin thinking about sessions for the 2010 conference in Los Angeles.
Based on the content of the 2009 conference,
we are in need of more sessions about curatorial issues concerning art museums, historic house museums, and
collection research. CurCom encourages you to take this opportunity, as a member of CurCom
and a museum professional, to have an impact on the future of the field and to:
- Explore critical issues or ideas that will benefit your colleagues, your museum and your profession
- Tap into a wider network of professionals
- Receive national recognition from your peers
- Enjoy sunny southern California
Why seek CurCom's session endorsement?
Endorsement by CurCom increases the chances that your session proposal will
accepted. As an AAM standing professional committee, CurCom is allocated guaranteed slots in the conference program.
Simply indicate in
the appropriate section of the proposal form that you would like CurCom to endorse your session. Sessions that are approved will also be highlighted on the CurCom website.
Submission
Deadline: To be considered for CurCom endorsement, you must submit your proposal by
July 10, 2009.
Proposal Ideas: Proposals may address a wide range of curatorial
issues including professional standards and practices, conservation and preservation, collections management and curation. Or
