Our Education Director and Co-Director, Trisha Clifford-Sprouse, went to D.C. last week to be a part of American Alliance of Museums (AAM) Museum Advocacy Day 2017.

Here are some photos from her trip:

Trisha will receive her 5 year Advocacy star next year!

​​If you would like to know how you can help please look over the following issues at a glance that AAM gave to us. I will give you a hint. This came from Sarah Sutherland, Senator Brown’s Chief of Staff. Send letters and emails. Voice mails are back logged and they don’t have a way to translate voicemails without typing each one up. They really do count how many times they hear about issues. Know where your rep offices are here in Ohio and stop in, make an appointment, send a letter. Let them know how museums have changed your life!
