Brunswick Railroad Museum

Founded as a result of Brunswick's 75th anniversary celebration, the "Diamond Jubilee", the Brunswick Potomac foundation held festivals in its early years, celebrating the town's rich transportation and natural histories. After purchasing a building in 1974, the Brunswick Railroad Museum has served the community in many ways, and has attracted visitors from all around the world, and attempting to keep its small-town-museum feel while constantly integrating new methods and technologies into our exhibits and archives.

Since 1983, the Central Maryland Heritage League has grown from a battlefield protection group.

Lamar's surgical suite and home located in downtown historical Middletown, Maryland. These preservation efforts, coupled with our focus on the education of our cultural and natural heritage in the Middletown Valley and throughout Central Maryland, is the ongoing initiative of our organization.

MUSEUM CONFERENCES

March 10 - March 13, 2026

California Association of Museums 2026 Annual Conference

California Association of Museums

Omni Hotel

Los Angeles, California

CAM is hard at work planning for the 2026 conference, set to take place from March 10–13, 2026 in Los Angeles. We look forward to highlighting best practices and innovative ideas from California's museum community at CAM 2026: Reframing

Reframing encapsulates the tangible nature of museum work–what we restore, revive, and rebuild–and the intangible nature of museum work–where we reflect, interpret, educate, and shift perspectives. On a larger scale, Reframing gives us the power to redefine who we are, why we’re important, and how we connect with and show up for our community. Reframing is resistance and resilience.

We look forward to reuniting with the California museum community in Los Angeles, March 10–13, 2026 at the Omni Hotel. Stay tuned for more annual conference developments.
