January
28 - 31, 2009
Please include time in your Conference agenda to visit the many and varied exhibitors. You’ll find products and services available such as: sheet music, instruments, instrument repair and maintenance, fundraising programs, gifts, tour/travel services, photography, performance equipment, uniforms, computer software, teaching aides, and, of course, Music Education! We are especially pleased to announce that the MENC Resource Shop will be with us again this year.
We will use Exhibit Halls “A”, “B” and “D” in the Civic Center. This plan will expand the exhibit area, offering a spacious, well-arranged, attractive and convenient display area with three entrances: one from the "Skylight" Lobby, one from the "Triangle" Lobby and one from the "Great Hall".

We have arranged a Gala Grand Opening Reception, scheduled for Thursday evening, January 29, from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. Complimentary refreshments will be provided for all in attendance using a Reception Ticket included in the Conference Registration materials. Visiting guests and dignitaries will be on hand to meet and greet you at the IMEA and MENC booths.
Additional visits to the Exhibit Hall may be made during the hours of:
Friday, January 30, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. and Saturday, January 31, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
Make special note that the Exhibit Halls will be open FREE to the public on Saturday, January 31, from 11:00 a.m. until 1:00 p.m., without the need for Conference Registration. This is intended as an opportunity for parents, family members and friends of our All-State participating students to visit the exhibits as they await the All-State and Honors Concerts. Please encourage concert-goers to visit the exhibits. This will also be conflict free exhibit time for all attendees.
