Registration


How to Register

Registration is only available through our online form. Coming in early 2024!

  • IMPORTANT: Exhibitors, Sponsors, Scholarship Recipients, Guest Speakers, Session Presenters, and Volunteers will receive instructions via email for accessing their complimentary or discounted registrations and/or evening event tickets.

A few things to know about registration:

  • Registration Form: We are investigating options for registration this year. Stay tuned for more information and detailed instructions.
  • Member Rates: Association of Midwest Museums (AMM) and Ohio Museums Association (OMA) members – museums, individuals, and companies – may take advantage of the member registration rates. If you are an Institutional or Individual Premium member of AMM, you have access to Virtual Only registration for free. You must be a current member. Contact us with questions or to check the status of your membership.
  • Corporate Rates: As of 2024, AMM has instituted a new policy for service provider/vendor participation in our conference. For-profit service providers/vendors who wish to attend the AMM conference in person must support the event at a base level (advertising) to participate. You will find combo packages in the registration form that include conference registration and a Midwest Marketplace Flyer Ad. Virtual Only participation does not require an additional ad purchase. If you have questions or wish to discuss other sponsorship, exhibit or advertising options, contact AMM.
  • Special Rates: We are continuing to offer discounted registration rates for students and furloughed museum workers; see below for details. Session and workshop presenters will have access to a registration discount following proposal acceptance.
  • Group Rates: Museums interested in sending 4 or more staff are invited to become Organizational Champion or Team Builder sponsors to access a group rate. This is a great way to show your staff you value and support them!
  • Volunteers: Volunteers receive discounted or free registration for their time. AMM will email volunteers with instructions for registration. Contact us if you have questions.
  • Virtual Platform: This year, we will be testing out Sched as our all-in-one virtual platform and mobile app. We hope you will like the features it offers and look forward to getting your feedback post-conference.

Registration Options and Pricing Information

We are working with our partners to ensure that this year’s conference is affordable and accessible.

NOTE: Due to inflation and the cost for producing events like the annual conference, our registration rates have increased for 2023. Member rates remain in line with the actual cost per person to produce the event. Non-member rates include the purchase of a one-year Individual Basic membership with AMM.

There’s no need to worry about early bird deadlines for AMM conferences! Our best rates are our standard rates and are available until the close of online, advance registration on July 15. Onsite rates will be available. Register early to save!
