Connect. Learn. Grow. WELCOME
WELCOME TO UNLIMITED OPPORTUNITIES Connect. Learn. Grow. WELCOME Welcome to Atlanta, Georgia for the 68th Annual Conference & Expo for GWA: The Association of Garden Communicators. I am excited you are here for what promises to be our best and most memorable event yet! We encourage you to take part in all the different networking and educational opportunities that are available over the next four days. Each of our education sessions and roundtables were selected by the Educational Program Committee for its educational value and real-world application, and we are confident you will leave Atlanta with new ideas and renewed passion for your work. Between garden tours and receptions, there is plenty of time to connect with old friends and to grow new relationships. I encourage you to speak to at least one new person during each break, and to not sit by the same person on the buses. You never know who you will meet that may spark a new idea for you or open a door to a new opportunity! Don’t forget your business cards. It’s a perfect way to easily be remembered by a new acquaintance. I’d like to close by thanking our sponsors, exhibitors, the Conference Committee, and especially the staff for all of the time and dedication they’ve put into making the Annual Conference the experience you have come to expect from GWA. Enjoy the Annual Conference & Expo. Enjoy Atlanta.
