Held biennially, the MAC Conference is the principal gathering for the Caribbean and circum-Caribbean museum community. A multilingual gathering across English-, Spanish-, French-, and Dutch-speaking contexts, the conference brings together the people, ideas, and practices shaping the future of the museum sector in the region.

Building on the success of MAC’s 2024 Conference, which welcomed over 200 delegates from 60 institutions across 23 countries, the 2026 conference continues to expand as the region’s leading forum for dialogue, exchange and collaboration.

#MACTANDT2026 Conference
This year’s Conference is hosted by Trinidad and Tobago Alliance of Museums (TTAM). The conference theme is Caribbean Museums: Connectors, Conveners, and Catalysts for Change. The MAC 2026 conference explores how Caribbean museums act as connectors, conveners, and catalysts for change by strengthening community ties, advancing cultural stewardship, and fostering sustainable, inclusive futures across the region.
