About
How do ROM curators, technicians and other Museum professionals lead their fields in local scientific research, care for cultural belongings, and collaborate with thought leaders and experts to preserve Canadian contributions and narratives for future generations? In this dynamic half-day of short talks, ROM staff will share how Museum workers connect with local communities and resources that matter to Canadians to help shape a better understanding of a uniquely Canadian past, present, and future.
