Annual Meeting “In Conjunction With” Event Registration

In Conjunction With (ICW) Events provide individual attendees, organizations, and institutions with the opportunity to host a meeting or event while on-site at the Annual Meeting. 

Whether you are interested in coordinating a Board or staff meeting or you are celebrating an Award recipient, ICW events provide a convenient option for individuals and organizations to gather. Hosting an ICW event is a fantastic opportunity to take advantage of valuable in-person time with others in attendance at the AFA Annual Meeting.

The ICW Request Form is currently closed. We anticipate the ICW Request Form for the 2025 Annual Meeting will open in August 2025.
