4 Our Story Since 1906, the American Alliance of Museums (The Alliance) has been helping to develop standards and best practices, providing advocacy and gathering knowledge for the entire museum community. A 501(c)(3) public charity, the Alliance is a member-based organization with broad-based departments and programs including the Accreditation and Museum Assessment Program, Museums Advocacy Day, AAM Annual Meeting & Museum Expo, Museum Magazine, the Center for the Future of Museums and AAM Press. The Alliance also offers professional development, publishes professional literature, and increasingly works internationally. We believe Museums strengthen communities. They educate and inspire, nourish minds and spirits, and enrich lives. 4

The audience breakdown is as follows and is prioritized within each segment: ∙ Museums ∙ Corporate Sponsors ∙ Grant Makers ∙ Other Associations ∙ Legislators/Policy Makers ∙ Museum Professionals ∙ Future Professionals ∙ Media Professionals ∙ Donors & Trustees ∙ Museum Advocates & Volunteers ∙ Researchers ∙ Teachers & Educators ∙ Patrons & Museum-goers ∙ K-12 & Higher Education Students Organization Professionals Public

Color Introducing color infers diversity, collaboration and creativity. Allows for a wide palette to be used with the brand. 15

16 16 Our logo The American Alliance of Museums logo unites these concepts of group strength and diversity though the colorful weave design. The clean and uniform rounded corners and angled lines gives this mark a very contemporary feel.

43 Color usage The American Alliance of Museums color palette is expansive and can be used to express a variety of emotions. Combining these versatile colors correctly is key to maintaining a cohesive brand. PMS 3165 This rich blue-green tone is the core color of the Alliance. It is stable and complex and soothing to the eye. It pairs well with any of the other brighter colors in the palette. Any greys should be converted to white before being placed atop this color.

The cooler blues and greens make up the core palette while the hotter, punchier reds and oranges are thrown in to add some punch and liveliness. The grays can be used sparingly in conjunction with either of the palettes. No color should be tinted.

45 PMS 3272 PMS 347 PMS 021 PMS 1797 PMS 328 PMS 3425 PMS 173 PMS 1807 The top row of colors are the main highlight colors of the Alliance. The bottom row of darker shades are to be used in conjunction with it's top row counterpart as an accent, as has been done in the Alliance logo. In most executions, the majority of the color palette should stick to the cooler end of the spectrum. The warmer colors should be used conservatively and only used to add punch to the placid tones of the blues and greens. cooler warmer cool warm 45

51 There are a series of illustrations and shapes that make up the look of the American Alliance of Museums. The colors shown can be changed to other brand colors (according to the guidelines) to fit your design. Illustration assets 1. Corner piece #1 These pieces sit in the top corners of layouts. 2. Swipe triangle These pieces are intended to sit at the bottom of a page to either accentuate the right side of the large banner (7) or should have an angled pin stripe protruding from it's top point. The pin stripe should follow the exact angle of the left side of the triangle. 3. Corner piece #2 Another piece intended to sit in a corner. 4. Corner piece #3 Yet another corner embellishment. 5. Weave arms These arms are inspired from the weave of the logo. 6. Pin stripe swipe & slice This piece can add a very slight and delicate accent to a stark white page. Text should not cross it's lines. 7. Large banner This banner was intended for large hero pages. Text should be placed with the horizontal area. The text should be weighted to the top-left of the live area. The left triangle area should bleed off of the bottom of the page and the pin stripe on the right should be extended to bleed off of the page as well.

Corner pieces should not be overly large. They should never extend further than 1/4 of the way across the page. 56

57 Our photography A focus on people is at the core of the Alliance brand. Photos should feel warm , modern , spacious and emotional . Architectural photos should not be the center of attention. All featured photos are for demonstration purposes only. Staff photography can look slightly more posed, but should have a relaxed portraiture feel. They should look authentic and optimistic . These photos should have rich colors with a soft focus . Staff photography

58 Architectural photography should appear in a textural context showcasing patterns and dramatic angles to reflect the brand's graphic language. The goal of visitor photography is to convey a fun , engaging and interactive atmosphere. People should appear in groups to reinforce the support and togetherness aspects of the Alliance. People should not appear posed and should not be looking into the camera unless there is only one person in the shot. Colors should be bold and strong and not pale in order to match the treatment of the brand's color palette. Architectural photography Visitor photography

59 Photography that is flat and dull should be avoided. Stiff, posed subjects is not what the Alliance represents. Misuse of photography

60 Architectural photography should not be flat and should contain some burst of bright, beautiful saturated color. People photography should steer clear of being overly staged and posed. Avoid washed out backgrounds. Avoid photos of people staring at art on walls. Interactivity and engagement are key in the photography for the Alliance. Misuse of architectural photography Misuse of people & staff photography All featured photos are for demonstration purposes only.
