The acromium is a region of your shoulder blade. The clavicle is your collarbone. Where the two articulate or form a joint is the acromioclavicular joint. You can palpate this by following your collarbone towards your shoulder until you feel a notch. That is pretty much putting your fingers right on that joint.
