Welcome to the Public Relations & Marketing group. This group was created for anyone who works in the museum public relations and marketing field (whether in-house or at a private company) or if you are interested in connecting with those in the field. With the explosion of social media and on-line collections, anyone who works at a museum would benefit from this group.
