CAJM Conference 2024

May 14-15 & Morning of May 16 in Washington, DC
Afternoon of May 16 in Baltimore, MD

THERE’S STILL TIME TO REGISTER!

SEE THE PROGRAM AGENDA!

American Jewish museums have long played a role in strengthening the public square and civic participation.  Whether working directly with teachers and schools, illuminating the journey of religious freedoms in America, anchoring and stimulating informed public dialogue, or modeling inclusion and democracy — museums are an integral force in public life. 

With American society now so deeply divided, museums of all kinds are developing new ideas about their role in democracy — for the immediate year ahead and beyond. 

In partnership with A More Perfect Union: The Jewish Partnership for Democracy, the CAJM 2024 conference is designed to activate new thinking across museums and elevate their civic engagement.

Note: while the special CAJM rate is no longer available at The Royal Sonesta Washington DC Dupont Circle hotel, you may still pursue a regular reservation there through its website (or at another hotel of your liking).
