Museums and the Web 2012 (MW2012): Events
MW2012 includes a wide variety of social events providing opportunities to meet – and learn from – professional peers, and to build a personal network.
Pre-conference Tours, Lunch during the pre-conference workshops, an Orientation Session for first time attendees, the Welcome Reception, Exhibitors' Reception, Buffet lunch, Conference Reception, and the Birds of a Feather tables, are all great opportunities for socialising.
There are also formal Sessions and less formal Interactions throughout the conference.
Pre-conference Tours
The day before the Pre-Conference Workshops, local cultural and scientific institutions have teamed to provide behind-the-scenes tours of some of the most interesting new media programs around.
Tours require separate registration; space is limited (you’re going "behind the scenes" and there’s only so much room).
