About MAC

MAC’s mission is to foster the sharing of skills and experience among museums and related organizations and societies with interests in the Caribbean. We recognize the importance of museums as centers of conservation and preservation of natural and cultural patrimony and of our common heritage. We also acknowledge the vital role that museums play in educational systems, scientific research and tourism related to the Caribbean and its worldwide diaspora. In light of this, MAC seeks:

To develop a common policy on the role of museums and duties of curatorial staff with common practices on exhibitions, conservation, preservation, legislation and regulations for the protection of national patrimony.

To act as an advisory board to governments and public and private institutions on matters pertaining to museum development.

To identify technical and financial resources at national, regional and international levels and to share information on needs and sources of assistance.

To strengthen museums so that they may foster and promote an awareness, appreciation and understanding of our heritage through education and related programs.
