Sheryl Leigh 21 Report post Posted February 20, 2017 This will be my first time ever going and am looking forward to it. Will any of you be there for me to say hi to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest JBaymore Report post Posted February 20, 2017 I'll be there. Just about always am. I won't be "tied" to the NHIA table in the non-profit area in the trade show hall... but I'll be there a bit. We kind of use that table as a "touch bases" point for the faculty and students that go. So stop by and say "hi". best, .....................john Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marcia Selsor 1,498 Report post Posted February 20, 2017 I'll be there too. I may be at some non-profit programs in Italy: La Meridiana and CRETA Rome. Also the program has great opportunities like the process room, the demonstrators, lecture, panels, emerging artists, and usually way too many exhibitions. There will be several thousand people there. Marcia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marcia Selsor 1,498 Report post Posted February 20, 2017 I have been attending since 1971 and it is always a great experience. Now it is more about visiting old friends but still find some learning events too. Marcia Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sheryl Leigh 21 Report post Posted March 20, 2017 Coming down to the wire for NCECA departure............ Ugh, I know! I am both excited and a little bit scared.

Sheryl Leigh 21 Report post Posted March 28, 2017 Shoot, Roberta, I didn't see anyone with a mask on, either! Didn't find any of this crew, unfortunately, but did make some good connections .... I think, for me, that was the most worthwhile part of the conference, followed by the demos. Roberta12 likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
