The ICOM ICEE 2024 CONFERENCE was held at the Estonian National Museum in Tartu from 29 September to 2 October 2024. The theme of this special and unique conference was “MOMENTUM Exhibitions and Memory”. The variety of presentations enriched the understanding of the relationship between exhibitions and memory, and how this relationship can be enhanced by Museums. How Exhibitions can link the memory of the past with the present and the future. The conference also provided an opportunity to learn about the role of memory and exhibitions in the Baltic countries, especially in Estonia, which has undergone a large-scale transformation in modern times, where museums have to step in and play an important memory role through their exhibitions. The rich and varied workshops, the exchange of knowledge and experience with colleagues from different Museums and backgrounds gave the conference an added dimension and success.
It was a pleasure to participate in this conference and to meet ICEE members, colleagues from Estonian Museums, friends and Museum professionals from all over the world.
Many thanks to the ICEE Board, the Estonian National Museum and all those involved in organising this conference.
