The Kansas Museums Association’s purpose is to promote museums and to provide leadership, advocacy, and training for the Kansas museum community. [From 2021 Strategic Plan Update]
From the Kansas Museums Association Board of Directors:
The Kansas Museums Association (KMA) board of directors is deeply concerned about systemic racism in our country against Black, Indigenous, Latinx, and people of color. Our commitment to racial equality and inclusion cannot be only during moments of crisis, but must extend to amplify social justice practices and work to see a future where the world is a more equitable place. KMA is committed to engaging in and facilitating education and frank discussion to create meaningful museum experiences in which every person is supported, welcomed, and treated with dignity and respect. We strive to ensure that all voices are lifted up through the lenses of art, science, and history.
If you have resources, questions or want to engage in meaningful dialogue that moves the association and your peers forward please contact Assistant Director Jamin Landavazo.
