Emerging Museum Professionals (EMP), an initiative of the American Alliance of Museums (AAM, formerly the American Association of Museums) is designed to facilitate social and professional opportunities for museums professionals in the first 10 years of their career. We aim to create a fun and accessible platform for young and emerging museum professionals to build a strong network of colleagues and advance their careers through a variety of opportunities, including workshops, mixers, and museum and gallery tours.
Check out our wall to find out about our upcoming events.

Looking for local ( greater DC) networking opportunities in the curatorial/education fields for museum professionals. I would appreciate any suggestions.

I would check out DC EMP (https://www.facebook.com/dcmetroEMP/), DC Museum Educators (https://twitter.com/DCMuseEd), and the DC Cultural Heritage meetups (http://www.meetup.com/Digital-Cultural-Heritage-DC/). They're all active in DC and might be good opportunities to meet others in the field.
