Optional Workshops & Seminars
All workshop and seminar registrants must also be registered for the full conference experience. Workshops are selected on the Eventbrite Registration underneath Registration Tickets.
Increase the impact of your conference experience by adding workshops and professional seminars to your Conference Registration. The Education Series is designed to address three distinct areas of our members’ development as artists: technical mastery and artistic achievement. We believe artists of any chosen medium will find new opportunities for growth through these sessions.
Some workshops also involve a separate materials fee which is included in the course fee. You must ADD the session to your registration to register for a workshop or seminar.
Please pay close attention to the date(s) and time(s) of your workshop session(s). Workshops will be held at the Somerset Inn and selected offsite locations (transportation arrangements included for offsite sessions). There is no limit to the number of workshops you can attend as long as the sessions are not scheduled at the same time. ONLY Registered Attendees may attend workshops.
PLEASE READ WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS FULLY
If you do not take the time to read the descriptions before registering, you run the risk of investing a great deal of time and money on a session that is not appropriate for your skill level or interests and goals.
