Institutional Membership
AAMC institutional members contribute to the organization by providing
the central funding we need to continue our programming each year. We
are confident that the growth of the AAMC will continue to reflect the
support and desire of museum directors across the country to see the
curatorial profession flourish and serve both our institutions and the
larger museum community. Our sliding scale dues structure is based on
an institution’s budget, following the AAMD guidelines, but at a
significant reduction in the contributions. For more information about
becoming an Institutional Member, please click here.
