Theme

At the 2023 conference, ARCS discussed momentum in the museum collections field and all the wonderful projects we’ve been working on. Emerging from the theme Momentum, the 2024 conference theme Synergy propels momentum into a cohesive balance enabling stakeholders to achieve a common greater good and to move towards a more equitable future. Synergy happens when two or more things come together to become greater than the sum of their individual effects. What can happen when we combine our momentum across departments, across disciplines, across the field? How can a variety of stakeholders with varying concerns, perspectives, and specialties converge to create a successful union? 

This year we look at the many ways we can synergize our work. We want to explore how relationships and partnerships - both planned or unexpected - achieve mutually beneficial outcomes. We envision sessions that discuss strategies to collaborate with partners, share projects that were successful because you found balance with a colleague or a fortuitous collaborator, or how finding synergy in our own workflows can make us and our outputs more effective and efficient.
