EXPO WORKSHOPS
Expo Workshops are an opportunity for exhibitors to share areas of expertise with the Pathways Community who are eager to explore and learn. On the Vendor Application, indicate your interest in presenting a Workshop, and provide a title and description of your talk. Workshop slots are extremely limited; topical subjects are given first preference; product demonstrations are discouraged.
FOR SUMMER 2025 Workshops: Descriptions received after May 1st will be placed on a waiting list.
- Any applying exhibitor is eligible to submit a presentation to be considered for one of the workshops at no extra cost.
- All workshops are limited to 50 minutes — we suggest a 40-min talk + 10-min. Q&A. Please plan your talk accordingly to respect the time of the speaker and guests following you!
- We encourage mind-body-spirit-eco-focused workshop topics with the goal of developing community, celebrating diversity, supporting health and wellness, and promoting stewardship for the earth.
- Workshop descriptions matter! Be as specific about what attendees can expect. Descriptions exceeding word limits will be edited for length as needed.
- If your presentation requires A/V equipment, please plan on providing your own device(s). A/V rentals through the venue are very costly; availability varies by venue. Pathways does NOT supply extra A/V equipment, so not all requests can be accommodated.
