The future of museums is as boundless as the Texas sky ─ but only if we work creatively, collaboratively and inclusively in the years ahead. And that starts now. “The Museum of the Future” is the theme for the 105th AAM Annual Meeting & MuseumExpo™, May 22-25, 2011 in Houston, where the ambitions are big and the ideas are bolder.

As the museum field’s premier professional development opportunity in 2011, the AAM Annual Meeting & MuseumExpo™ will showcase the best thinking from both practitioners and visionaries on the major issues confronting us and the communities we serve. The world moves faster than ever, and museums must not only keep pace but forge ahead.

What better place to chart our future? The fourth largest city in the U.S., Houston is an urban center that defies expectations. It is home to 18 Fortune 500 companies, the world’s largest medical complex, over 40 colleges and universities, and 500 cultural, visual, and performing arts organizations, many devoted to multicultural arts. More than 80 different languages are spoken here. There is no longer any racial or ethnic majority, and the Hispanic population is one of the largest in the nation. Thirty-seven percent of the population is under the age of 24. Houston is the ideal testing ground to investigate our future.
