Advocacy
The American Alliance of Museums works to unite the country’s museums from art museums to zoos. The Alliance helps museums tell our story and promotes a deeper understanding of museums with policymakers, the press and the public.
You don't have to be in Washington, DC to make the case for museums. Use our tools, resources and data to contact your legislators, raise your visibility with the local press and get involved on social media.
