Deadline: January 18, 2005

The J. Paul Getty Museum invites you to submit an abstract for presentation in conjunction with a symposium to be held on June 3-5, 2005 at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, California.

The purpose of this symposium is to bring together professionals whose work focuses on or informs interactive spaces designed specifically for family audiences in art and history museums. In particular, the symposium will interest museum professionals, researchers, child development specialists, architects, and designers. The symposium will create an in-depth opportunity for professionals to share information, dialogue about the fundamental issues and philosophical underpinnings of our approaches, and recognize and document multiple perspectives on the key issues in this area of museum work.
