About the 2023 Conference Theme

Purposefully developed by the local arrangements team in Louisville over many planning meetings, the 2023 SEMC Conference theme is Truth Builds Community. Louisville, along with many cities across our country, experienced much social unrest during the past several years, and the cultural community and institutions have taken an active role in creating programs and exhibits that shed light, lift up underserved and underrepresented peoples, and create space for community engagement for healing and open dialogue. We are excited to offer sessions that share, examine, and promote this work in cultural institutions and the diverse communities they represent, and join SEMC attendees for direct dialogue, networking, and professional growth and development next fall in Louisville!
