As the country rebounds from the COVID-19 pandemic, how are museums doing? Who is coming to museums and why? How does attendance compare to pre-pandemic norms? What are the barriers to visitation?
Join CFM director Elizabeth Merritt for Future Chats—a new AAM series on trends, news, and the implications for our sector. For the third installment of the series on November 14, at 3:00 PM ET, she will chat with Susie Wilkening, principal of Wilkening Consulting, about the latest data from the Annual Survey of Museum-Goers.
After the chat, join discussion groups to explore solutions for increasing engagement, and share your own experiences with post-pandemic visitor trends.
General portions of this Future Chat will be recorded. Breakout discussions will not be recorded, and are only available to live participants.
