American Association of Museums President/CEO Dr. Ford Bell Details How ‘Museums Matter’ at San Diego Cultural Arts Leadership Symposium

The BPCP’s Balboa Park Learning Institute is a $1.3 million, three-year pilot program, which has received generous support from the federal Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). The Institute offers innovative and specialized learning opportunities focused on the cultural arts field to professionals and volunteers in Balboa Park and the greater San Diego community. In doing so, the Institute helps institutions such as museums, theatres, symphonies, and zoos better preserve, create, and share a unique and varied cultural heritage with present and future generations.
