LGBTQ Alliance Welcoming Guidelines for Museums

May 1, 2016 | Public Programs, Exhibitions
The Welcoming Guidelines Task Force was launched in 2014 to compile preferred practices for museums to use in working with LGBTQ professionals and communities. These practices are organized across functions and areas of professional practice with the goal to create a workable document that can be used by professionals and institutions of all kinds. The Guidelines are envisioned as a checklist/assessment that can be applied by individual LGTBQ museum professionals and our allies as a resource to effect change at institutions that serve LGBTQ persons and families and employ LGBTQ staff and contractors. It’s anticipated that with use and review these guidelines will be updated.
