Announcing the CMA Google Group
The Council for Museum Anthropology (CMA) is pleased to announce the launch of our Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/council-for-museum-anthropology-aaa. A supplement to our social media outreach, we hope this list-serv will help connect our CMA community, serving as a platform for members to access special announcements, share headlines from the field, circulate calls for papers, and distribute other relevant information.
To join the group, click here (or copy/paste the above link into your browser) and then select “ask to join the group.” Please include a brief sentence on why you want to join the group or your affiliation for verification. Our moderator will then approve your request to join in the coming days. CMA and/or AAA membership is encouraged, but not required, to participate.
The mission of the Council for Museum Anthropology is to foster the development of anthropology in the context of museums and related institutions. We are an all-volunteer membership section of the American Anthropological Association that serves scholars, practitioners, and students across the fields of anthropology, museology, cultural heritage, folklore, social studies of science, art history, history, and many more. We engage with diverse institutions and communities, anthropological collections, and museum-related issues on multiple platforms, including CMA’s journal, Museum Anthropology, a regular column in Anthropology News, social media platforms, a biennial conference, mentorship programming, as well as seminars and special publications. The CMA supports and maintains a community dedicated to the advancement of the field. To learn more about the CMA, visit our website. Please also follow us on Facebook, LinkedIn, and on our Blog.
