Manager Maya to speak at Symposium March 6

Although not technically a SORM event, we're giving a shout-out to the Making Culture Matter Symposium (@mCULTUREm) where Manager Maya will be speaking on March 6th.  Follow the link to learn more and register for the event, which is being held at Hart House, UofToronto.  Maya will be speaking about one of her favourite subjects (no, not WW2 radar), museum engagement.  She wants you in museums and has ideas about making museums as engaging as they think they are.  We're proud of her.
