From the AAM:
Baltimore, Maryland is hosting the 107th Annual American Alliance of Museums Meeting and Museum Expo on May 19-22, 2013. The meeting will focus on “the power of story:”
In Baltimore in 2013 during AAM’s 107th Annual Meeting, we invite you to explore with us the power and impact of story. What are the elements that make a great and unforgettable story? What are the techniques for good storytelling? How do we measure the impact of story on our different audiences? How do we use storytelling to share authority—not only as storytellers but as listeners providing platforms for others to tell stories? How do we best use storytelling to achieve our immediate goals and fulfill our long-term missions as core educational and community institutions?
The planning committee will take session proposals beginning on July 16 until August 24, 2012. Submission instructions are available on the AAM website.
