The “Shared Practice” meetings provide an opportunity for you to talk with your colleagues and peers about the many common topics associated with managing a cultural facility. You can discuss what is working/not, ask any questions about an issue you are facing, share your lessons learned with others, and otherwise network and learn from each other.
Some meetings have a presentation, others are open discussion. The meetings are open to all folks working on cultural facility management and projects. Your participation is a valuable to the overall group. If you have not attended one of these before, read about Shared Practice meetings.
Normally Fourth Tuesday of the month from January to October, except for Annual Conference month, also first week of December
