ArtsTech Meetups, the Upgrade Network, DorkBot, and other self-organized groups are providing a great social forum for museum professionals, curators, fans, innovators and artists to collaborate and meet in a physical social space. In this session, we'll look at how these unaffilliated groups are contributing to the greater social fabric of the arts scene and discuss how institutions are collaborating with these loosely organized networks.
