There’s a new kind of programming at our conference
this year!
WE’RE TAKING ATTENDEES OUT OF THE HOTEL AND INTO THE
SURROUNDING CITY AS PART OF OUR REGULAR SESSION PROGRAMMING.
The City Experience is designed to engage ARLIS/NA attendees
in learning about different parts of Boston, Cambridge, and Providence, RI. Attendees
will travel to parts of the city they might not see from the hotel or on a
regular tour on Friday. Through your travel, you’ll learn about the city,
you’ll learn about the part of the city you are visiting, you’ll
take a tour at an institution, you’ll have lunch with colleagues, and
you’ll attend a session related to your tours. Enjoy a day of
immersive activities with colleagues interested in that venue’s topics!
HOW IS THIS DIFFERENT?
We’re combining the idea
of tour, session, and networking into one experience, and taking you through the
city, giving you the experience of living in the Boston and Providence areas.
Come try it out with us!
See http://www.arlisna.org/boston2010/cityexperience.htm
for a full description of THE CITY EXPERIENCE.
We’re looking forward to seeing you in the Hub in
April!
