The CWAM Annual Meeting provides a great opportunity to put your name in front of our guests with multiple sponsorship levels and prime vendor spots. Our full list of opportunities for 2026 is below. Questions? Ready to sign up? Reach out to Angela Raynes at Sponsorships@cwam-us.org.

Want to go above and beyond for local museums and our professional community?  Donate a product or service to the annual CWAM Silent Auction! 100% of the auction funds raised support the Annual Meeting Scholarship, which helps reduce barriers to attending the conference for museum professionals at all stages of their careers and experience. Last year, ten individuals received full-paid registrations and travel funds. This year, we hope to double that in honor of Colorado’s Sesquisemiquincentennial milestone. Contact Megan Winterfelt, CWAM auction chair, at MWinterfeldt@prorodeo.com to arrange the donation.
