CONFERENCE 2O16
INSPIRING SOLUTIONS
Museums and galleries are valued public spaces that inspire, foster understanding and dialogue and encourage solutions
for a better world. More than mere repositories — they host learning experiences, provide meeting places and are centres
of community celebration. Museums offer unique dining and retail opportunities, provide social services and even a safe
venue for a fun date night. However, foremost they continue to be the keepers of material evidence of human activity,
and understanding and the natural world.
As museums seek new ways to become sustainable they must re-evaluate what they do to remain relevant. CMA 2016
Halifax will strive to bring together museums and gallery professionals with national and international speakers to create
a dialogue about how, together, we can inspire solutions for a better world.
From around the corner to around the globe, CMA 2016 Halifax keynote speakers and educational sessions will strive
to engage and deliver a program that shares innovative and workable solutions. The Conference will pose challenging
questions providing delegates the opportunity to work creatively together so that positive change can have a lasting
effect on policy, practice and ultimately sustainability.
DELEGATE PROFILE: More than 300 decision makers who are directly involved with Canada’s cultural institutes are
expected to participate. These will include, Executive Directors, Chief Financial Officers, Curators, Educators, Interpreters
and Senior Managers, as well as Board Members.
SESSIONS: Plenaries, breakouts, workshops and study tours will explore a variety of topics, many related to the
conference theme — inspiring solutions.
