About the San Luis Obispo Children's Museum Floor One - Museum Store, Volcano, Exploration Caves (OPENS 2009)>br> A grand and unexpected surprise awaits children of all ages! As guests enter the San Luis Obispo Children’s Museum, they find themselves inside a scientific research station. Video monitors overhead show footage of what construction workers discovered when they dug into the soil to prepare the foundation for the new museum. Guests enter a mock elevator that transports them “down” into the earth, opening to reveal an underground cavern that lies below the town overhead. A giant opening through to the third floor provides a dramatic and memorable effect.
As we gather for the Oregon Museums Association 2024 Annual Conference in Coos Bay, the conference theme “Ebb & Flow” acknowledges the nearby coastline while providing a metaphor to reflect on the work of Oregon’s museums today
It can feel like the sands are shifting as museums face challenges and opportunities like changing patterns of visitorship, evolving technologies, revised funding strategies, and peoples’ desire for community.
The 2024 conference will explore contemporary issues facing museums, so that together we can take the helm to identify solutions and successfully steer our work forward
Whether you are an emerging professional just getting your feet wet, in the mid-career flow, or an established leader navigating the depths of museum work, we invite you to join us at The Mill Casino Hotel in Coos Bay, September 8-10, 2024.
