About the Theme
CAM's 2024 Annual Conference will take place in Long Beach, California from March 10–13, 2024. CAM last convened an annual conference in Long Beach in 2007, and 2024 marks our return to the beautiful Southern California locale. With a community rich in heritage, history, and iconic landmarks, Long Beach offers museum workers a point of gathering from which we'll launch into new ways of working and making change within the field.

Preliminary Program
All case studies, roundtable discussions, panel sessions, and creative stations are included in conference registration. Pre-conference Workshops and some events will require additional registration and fee, with limited capacity. The final program will be updated the week of March 4,2024.
