California Association of Museums will be held in Los Angeles, March 10–13, 2026 at the Omni Hotel..
Reframing encapsulates the tangible nature of museum work–what we restore, revive, and rebuild–and the intangible nature of museum work–where we reflect, interpret, educate, and shift perspectives. On a larger scale, Reframing gives us the power to redefine who we are, why we’re important, and how we connect with and show up for our community. Reframing is resistance and resilience.
We look forward to reuniting with the California museum community in Los Angeles, March 10–13, 2026 at the Omni Hotel.
Potential themes: visitor experience, funding, advocacy, disaster preparedness, pay equity, unions, registration and collections, and small museums
