The Smithsonian Cultural Rescue Initiative (SCRI) and the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) are excited to announce a new training opportunity aimed to help cultural heritage professionals and emergency management professionals who work with cultural collections in tribal nations. Heritage Emergency and Response Training (HEART) for Native Communities builds on the existing HEART curriculum and blends the expertise of SCRI, and its home unit the Museum Conservation Institute, with the knowledge and experience of our NMAI colleagues. Training will focus on emergency preparedness and response for cultural institutions, specifically Native museums, communities, and heritage. The training will take place April 7-11, 2025, in Washington, D.C. All information about the program, including application instructions, can be found here: https://culturalrescue.si.edu/heritage-emergency-and-response-training-heart-native-communities.
