Show your passion for the profession and support NAI’s scholarship program by purchasing items at the scholarship auction. Come early and browse the deals at the silent auction tables, T-shirt sale, and book nook. Then get ready for a lively auction. This is the perfect place to find holiday gifts, curiosities, collector’s items, interpretation materials for your site, or a special treat for yourself. NAI is dedicated to supporting education and training for young professionals in interpretation. Proceeds go to NAI’s scholarship fund, college scholarships, and training monies for students and professionals. There will be a cash bar while you enjoy the banter of the NAI auctioneers.
