Museum Services

The Museum Services program's mission is to advance the value of museums within Utah and to enable the broadest physical, intellectual and emotional access to collections and programs. The Program assists Utah museums in improving their ability to:

• • care for and manage collections
  • develop quality educational resources
  • provide access to collections for research
  • identify and successfully compete for financial resources

Starting in January 2022, we will be offering monthly webinars (free) and quarterly 2-part in-person workshops ($10). Visit our Utah Collections Preservation website where you can find webinar and workshop calendars and registration links to reserve your spot!

The Utah Museums Association and Utah Division of Arts & Museums are facilitating online conversations to keep you connected and share ideas about timely topics relevant to the museum community.

Each conversation will have a topic to keep us focused. If you have suggestions for topics or would be willing to lead a topic please let us know by filling out this form.

After each Museum Exchange we will pull together resources shared with the group and add them here.

The Museum Services Program provides funding to support museum’s staff, board members, or key volunteers to attend relevant conferences and trainings or online coursework and workshops. These conferences/trainings provide opportunities to expand organizations’ skill sets and network with other museum professionals in the field.
