Ethical Contracting: Is Your Museum Doing It?
A relationship is a two-way street, and it's no different for independent professionals and the museums who hire them. This panel session will bring to light current issues facing the sector and present a practical framework for both museums and independents to follow to ensure ethical and fair treatment. With contracting expected to increase as museums tighten their belts post-COVID and a surge of newly laid-off professionals entering the field as independents, now is the time for a discussion to ensure these working relationships are based on fairness and equity. Co-sponsored by Independent Museum Professionals (IMP) and the Association of Registrars and Collection Specialists (ARCS).
Wednesday, 6/9, 2:35-3:35p CT
