Knowledge in the discipline of arts management cannot develop without the contributions of both researchers and practitioners. Through its conferences, AIMAC provides a forum for the exchange of insights and perspectives in this field of study. It offers researchers the opportunity to present the results of their most recent research, to discuss ideas face-to-face and to learn about the latest developments in cultural management.

The International Association of Arts and Cultural Management also participates in the publication of the International Journal of Arts Management, published by HEC Montréal’s Carmelle and Rémi Marcoux Chair in Arts Management. This refereed journal is intended for art managers, consultants, educators, researchers and civil servants in the field of arts and cultural management. It presents the latest research and developments in the field.

Over the years, international conferences on arts and culture management have brought together more than 1,500 researchers, academics, students and practitioners. The conferences allow participants to communicate their knowledge and to publicize the progress of research on several themes applied to the field of arts and culture management.

The papers presented at the conferences are available in the proceedings and their publication is ensured by the organizing committee of the host city. These papers are selected by the members of the scientific committee.
