The MMA has 3 major objectives: promote professional communications between all types of museums, public as well as private within the state; promote statewide public awareness of the value of museums as educational and research institutions; and solicit or receive grants, contributions, plus properties for the financial well-being of the MMA. From 1978 to 1981, MMA employed Dolores Slowinski as the executive director. This position was abolished in 1981 because of funding difficulties.
