What does AMAGA mean in Australian?

amaga

The Australian Museums and Galleries Association (AMaGA), formerly Museums Galleries Australia and Museums Australia, is the national professional organisation and peak council for museums and public art galleries in Australia. It advocates for the sector and provides a range of professional services to its members at a national, state and interest group level. Museums Australia was established on 1 January 1994 by a national amalgamation of four museums associations: the Council of Australian Museums Associations, the Museums Association of Australia, the Art Museums Association of Australia, and the Museum Education Association of Australia. It changed its name to Museums Australia in 2014/15, and then to the Australian Museums and Galleries Association in 2018. AMaGA publishes a biannual journal, Museums Galleries Australia Magazine.
