FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

What is included with the registration fee?
Your registration fee includes all conference sessions.

How do I access the Virtual Event Hub?
The week before the conference, you will receive an email with a link to the Virtual Platform where you can log in with your email and create a password. You will use this password for all future visits so please keep it in a safe place. If you have any issues, please email NPNConference@conferencedirect.com.

Who attends the NPN Conference?
The conference is open to all, and we are excited to welcome artists, presenters, and colleagues from around the world!

  • NPN’s presenting and commissioning partners, board members, and staff
  • US and international colleagues—arts presenters/producers, curators, cultural organizers, and funders
  • Artists whose work advances racial and cultural justice, many of whom have previously received funding from NPN


This will be my first NPN Conference—will I be the only one who doesn't know anyone?
Usually about 40% of attendees are new to the conference. While a virtual conference makes it harder to meet new people, we have intentionally included community-building events this year and hope you will feel comfortable engaging with other attendees as you wish.

What are the objectives of the NPN Conference?

  • Deepen our learning and practice of justice and liberation, individually and collectively
  • Build and strengthen relationships rooted in reciprocity and respect
  • Expand professional development as artists and cultural workers to advance racial and cultural justice in the arts
  • Connect with artists and their work and work together to build artists’ power


What is the Cancellation Policy?
Cancellation requests must be received by March 8, 2023. Should circumstances arise that result in the cancellation or postponement of the conference, NPN will issue a full refund. For cancellations or questions regarding the cancellation policy, please email NPNConference@conferencedirect.com.

Will sessions be recorded for viewing on demand at a later time?
Keynotes and artist showcases will be archived and available on the Virtual Event Hub for registered attendees for a period of time after the conference.

Where can I find resources from each plenary session?
