  • October 4 10 and Blue Football Fields
    WESTERN MUSEUMS ASSOCIATION BOISE ANNUAL MEETING OCTOBER 4–7 ENGAGE in partnership with Idaho Association of Museums Final Program WMA 2019 Dear Friends and Colleagues, Welcome to Boise, the vibrant capital city of Idaho. While currently listed as one of the fastest- growing cities in America, the area has long been a destination in the Basque diaspora and is home to the most concentrated populations of Basque-Americans in the United States. The “Basque Block,” located near our headquarters hotel, is the only place in the western hemisphere dedicated to preserving the rich culture and history of Basque communities. In fact, Boise is so welcoming that since 1975 it has been an official refugee relocation site. Located just west of the Rocky Mountains, the cosmopolitan area of Boise enjoys sweeping views of the stunning and iconic foothills to the northeast. The Boise River Greenbelt flows through the heart of the city, providing space for recreation and reflection. A perfect blend of urban and rural, the active capital presents a comforting contrast between mountains and museums, restaurants and rivers, festivals and fresh air. For such a small city – and one that has made a name for itself as a cultural hub for jazz and theater – there is certainly plenty to do. In convening the 84th Annual Meeting, the WMA is thrilled to deliver unprecedented access to a variety of Boise museums and historic cultural sites including the Basque Museum & Cultural Center, the Idaho State Capital, the Boise Art Museum, and the newly renovated Idaho State Museum. We CONTENTS know that our most valuable resource is our attendees, so we have provided numerous one-of-a-kind opportunities for you all to network, engage with one another, and learn a little bit about Boise, The Welcome 1 City of Trees.
