The Association of Manitoba Museum's 2007 Conference and AGM was held in The Pas September 21 and 22. This year's theme was Destination; Museums! Event summary and photos. |
Why is May 12 Manitoba Day? It was on May 12, 1870 that the Manitoba Act was given royal assent and Manitoba officially entered Confederation as a province. The Act was proclaimed on July 15, 1870 Manitoba’s other birthday. On May 12, 1966 Manitoba’s official flag was dedicated and unfurled for the first time. In 1986, May 12 was designated as Manitoba Day in perpetuity in recognition of the importance of this date in the province’s history. Following is a list of some of the museums and organizations that are celebrating Manitoba's birthday during the month of May. You're sure to find something to your liking! Manitoba Day Events
The TiL project will be looking at the AMM's current training program and will be making recommendations for improvement to its delivery and content. These recommendations will be based on what our members want and what our instructors, and other contributing experts, feel should be included or changed. The AMM would like to thank The Winnipeg Foundation for the grant and its support of this important project.
A conference can only be made great with the efforts of interested individuals. If you'd like to help in planning the next greatest AMM conference ever please consider joining the Conference Committee. They'll be meeting again soon, so call the AMM office if you'd like to pitch in. Do you have an item or collection collecting dust ?

The Association of Manitoba Museums will strive to become the primary museum related service organization in Manitoba providing innovative training, advocacy, resources and responsive leadership to a diverse and growing membership.
