JOIN THE FUNDRAISER STARTING JUNE 9TH
The response to our first Double Good fundraiser was so overwhelming that we couldn’t say no, Round 2 is officially HERE and it kicks off on June 9th!
That’s right, by popular demand, we are bringing back the fundraiser that helped us raise over $5,000 for AAAM 2026 Conference Student and Emerging Museum Professional initiatives. And this time, we’re aiming even higher!
Here’s how it works:
- Set up your personal popup shop
- Share it with your friends, family, and colleagues
- Sell Double Good’s award-winning popcorn — AAAM earns 50% of every sale!
And this is your chance to win some amazing prizes! Our top fundraiser will receive:
- Complimentary AAAM 2026 Conference Registration
- Complimentary AAAM 2027 Conference Registration
- A special highlight in the AAAM 2026 Conference Program Booklet
- An award presented during AAAM 2026!
Thank You for an Amazing Fundraiser!
We are beyond grateful to everyone who participated in our Double Good fundraiser! Because of your incredible support, even over the holiday weekend, we surpassed our goal and raised over $5,000 for AAAM2026 Conference Student and Emerging Museum Professional initiatives. Every sale made a real difference, and we couldn’t have done it without you!
A special congratulations to Brandon Nightingale, our top fundraiser, who will be recognized at the AAAM2026 Conference and receive some amazing perks for leading the charge! And a huge shoutout to Kyra March (2nd place) and Savion Trigg (3rd place) for their incredible efforts and dedication to the cause, you both showed up and gave it everything you had. We see you and we appreciate you!
But the fun isn’t over, our next fundraiser launches June 9th! Tell your friends and family to get ready, because we’re just getting started. Stay tuned for details and let’s make the next round even bigger!
We’ve partnered with Double Good to bring you a fun and meaningful way to show your support for AAAM and our students and EMPs. For every purchase made through our fundraiser, 50% of the proceeds go directly to AAAM — fueling the programs, initiatives, and people that make our work possible.
Your support helps us invest the next generation of museum professionals and students who will carry our mission forward. Through our Emerging Museum Professionals program and our growing student community, we are nurturing future leaders who will shape the cultural landscape for years to come.
Every bag of popcorn is more than a snack — it’s a statement that you believe in this work.
