What is Museum Workers’ Advocacy Day?
The National Emerging Museum Professionals Network (NEMPN) hosts Museum Workers Advocacy Day annually, providing a platform for museum professionals from all sectors and levels of experience to come together and advocate for equitable industry changes.
This free event provides a crucial platform for museum workers to address challenges impacting their profession, participate in advocacy initiatives, and advocate for reforms that foster equity and fairness within the industry.
