Co-hosts are the Pennsylvania Federation of Museums and Historical Organizations, the Western Pennsylvania Museum Council, the PHMC, Senator John Heinz Pittsburgh History Center, and the Johnstown Area Heritage Association. What is the future of Regional Museums? What strategies must they adopt to thrive in a global economy? Presenters are encouraged to discuss issues relating to economic sustainability; methods of increasing community involvement and the challenges of documenting, collecting and interpreting changing cultural and physical landscapes.
