The Mid-Atlantic Association of Museums is a not for profit membership organization, founded in 1945.
Our organization represents museums professionals, organizations, insititutions and museum service providers, providing a forum to enhance the image of museums and educate individuals on an array of field specific study and programs. We chiefly represent those museum interests in Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania. Our Bylaws can be found here.

The Association fosters excellence in the museum community.
