Be Recognized with the OMA Awards Program!
With the recent Grammy nomination announcements, Awards Season is well underway. “The Season” leads us into the new year with iconic awards such as The Golden Globes, SAG Awards, Critics Choice Awards, and of course, the OMA Annual Awards Program!
Unlike those other award programs, the Ohio Museums Association’s Annual Awards are all about Ohio – more specifically the museums in our great state and the wonderful museum professionals who work in and for them.
