If the Museum will be re-open on June 14, why isn’t the AHF Annual Members’ Meeting in-person instead of a virtual meeting?

The AHF staff began developing the program for the Annual Meeting a few months ago and did not know when the Museum would be reopening, so a virtual meeting was planned for June 17. Additionally, there are strict limits on capacity in the Museum. We want all members to be able to participate in our Annual Business Meeting.
