* Format:

Americans for the Arts is always searching for session formats that challenge the habits of typical conference presentations. Proposals that emphasize audience engagement, that incorporate �doing� as well as �talking,� and that respond to the convention theme or session topic in an innovative way are strongly encouraged. Presenters may select from among three time-formats: 45 minutes; 90 minutes; and half-day. Typical session attendance is 50-100 participants.

	Performances or Demonstrations introduce participants to a topic or issue through a creative presentation followed by reflection, discussion, and questions.
	Facilitated Discussions present an issue or trend in the field as a conversation among experts followed by Q & A.
	Case Studies describe a program or project in depth, focusing on innovative solutions to clearly defined challenges and their implications for the field.
	Research or Data Presentations help interpret new research or data through practical field applications.
	Skill Building and Hands-On Learning Experiences encourage participants to use professional skills to explore a scenario and to teach and learn new tactics from one another.
	Other (please specify)
