The Association of Independent Museums (AIM) will hold its first ever virtual conference on 18th and 19th June 2020 (British Summer Time) on the theme "Roads to Recovery".

The conference will draw together practitioners, professionals, experts and policymakers from across the cultural spectrum. The programme splits across two days, with day one – Thursday 18 June  – focused on the future and day two – Friday 19 June – considering the tools that will help us respond to that future.
