NAI National Workshop
November 16-20, 2010
Las Vegas, Nevada
The 2010 NAI National Workshop in famous Las Vegas, Nevada, will be an exciting and dynamic experience for interpreters from all corners of the profession. Las Vegas is a complex city, at once a thriving oasis and a vast desert, a glitzy resort destination and a historic frontier town. Just as this city defies simple definition, so does the interpretive profession. Join us in Las Vegas to explore the many sides of this unique city and the many sides of our varied vocation.
The professional development and networking opportunities at every NAI workshop include inspiring and informative keynote speakers, concurrent sessions, preworkshop training, special events, and offsite sessions that allow you to learn about a unique corner of the country. Discover the stark and breathtaking beauty of the Mojave Desert, incredible feats of human ingenuity and engineering at the Hoover Dam, and the exciting world of interpretive exhibits like zoos, aquariums, and museums along the famous Las Vegas strip.
Deb Tewell at NAI’s national office is the main contact person for questions or comments about the NAI National Workshop. Call NAI at 888-900-8283. E-mail Deb at dtewell@interpnet.com.
