Student and Young Members “Pre-meeting Prep”, 4:00-5:30 PM, Third Floor Galleries @ Scandinavia House
Students and young professionals are invited to join us for a special 1.5-hour event prior to this year’s annual meeting. This is a great opportunity for first time attendees or new members to warm up ahead of the greater SEAoNY Annual Meeting. We will use this time for networking and give our Student Outreach Committee and Young Members Group a chance to share all we have in store for 2024-2025. You do not need to be a member of the committees to attend. Snacks and light refreshments will be provided.
All participants must register for the ‘regular’ Annual Meeting.
