We facilitate career growth and advancement through networking, workshops, and events.
We provide a platform for EMPs to communicate with and learn from one another.
We create a strong EMP presence in the County of San Diego through partnerships with local and national museum and cultural professional organizations.
We create a network within our local arts, science, and culture community to benefit the career growth of our members.
