From the Field
The third iteration of the Art Museum Director Survey seeks to understand the opportunities, challenges, and strategic issues art museum directors face in their work, particularly in relation to budgeting, public trust and engagement, collections care, and talent management.
The 2025 Salary Survey includes 19 new jobs, the addition of Regional Price Parities to factor in cost of living across regions, refreshed job titles and descriptions for some roles, benchmarks by city and state (where possible), and more!
