  1. Apply to Volunteer for a Discount on Convention Registration

 

If you or your staff are looking for a great way to save in order to attend our upcoming Convention in Denver, the application deadline to volunteer has been extended to May 14, 2018.

Americans for the Arts is pleased to offer a limited number of discounted registration rates to volunteers (who are current AFTA professional members) to help offset the cost of the convention registration fees. Volunteers who work during the convention will receive a discounted rate of $275 for the full convention. To be considered you must register at the full rate and you will be reimbursed post-Convention for the difference after successful completion of your volunteer duties.

To apply, please click here.

  1. Check out the Arts Education Specific Opportunities at Convention

As always, the Americans for the Arts’ Annual Convention has numerous opportunities to dive deep into topics about arts education. Ranging from social opportunities to sessions, and keynotes, you can check out the full list of opportunities here.

Should you have any questions about any of the material presented above, please do not hesitate to reach out.

 

My best,

Jeff
