Museum Development Yorkshire is delighted to host EMAC 2016 in York. We will use this opportunity to help museum advisers and consultants from across Europe to share and develop skills. We also hope to use the conference as an opportunity to develop business relationships between European advisers and UK museums so that we can participate in shared projects.
The language of the conference is English.
