Saturday, September 6, 2025

2:30 PM - 3:30 PM US PT

Location: 2001

Museum research has expanded in recent years but it is not always living up to its potential for change. This session considers how museums can design and use research systematically and deliberately to support learning and equity; advance the broader field; and contribute to scholarship, policy, and more.
