Why are the Heurich House Museum staff forming this group?

We believe cultural institutions have a responsibility to build and develop the next generation of leaders. Our staff approached leadership about utilizing the museum’s space to form the group. This group is created by and for DC’s emerging humanities professionals. Our boss won’t be there, leave yours at work too.
