Calling all community champs and local organizations! The Community Connections Conference just bumped its exhibitor application deadline to January 15. If you've got the goods to educate and entertain the Minneapolis masses, they want you in the mix. This is your chance to showcase resources, spread some skills, or plug your latest project, all without dropping a dime if you're a nonprofit or public institution.
Your spot at the February 17 conference could quickly be secured if you're ready to quickly put together an exhibit that's as informative as it is enjoyable. The Minneapolis Convention Center is set to host the get-together, pulling residents, community groups, neighborhoods, and City Hall types under one roof, according to Minneapolis City of Lakes.
"We invite everyone in the community to share information, skills, resources, and opportunities through exhibitor booths," read a statement from the city's recent announcement. The yearly event aims to stitch together the city's diverse fabric into a tighter community quilt. This is not just a grown-up affair, either. Kids' activities and adult learning experiences will both be on the agenda, as per Minneapolis City of Lakes.
For additional information on how to apply, or to get a feel for what the Community Connections Conference is all about, check out the official city announcement. Stay up-to-date with conference developments and deadlines, or you might just miss out on an opportunity to connect and sway the community at this not-to-be-missed yearly event.
