The 47^th Annual Arkansas Literacy Association Literacy Conferenceis scheduled for November 14-15, 2019, in Little Rock, Arkansas, at The Vines Center (4-H Center).   We are expecting 400+ educators at this year’s conference.  Exhibits will be located in the main hall of the facility which will be in the traffic flow of the participants. Dedicated exhibit times are built into this year’s schedule.

The cost of a booth (table) is $200.00.  There will be no pipe and drape--space does not allow, but the tables will be skirted.  Each exhibit area will be about 10’ x 6’. An exhibitor may purchase more than one table; however, because there is a limited number of tables available--30--exhibitors will be limited to 2 tables, initially, if the demand exceeds the supply.  Tables will be assigned upon receipt of payment.

Payment includes one 8’ table, two chairs, and a standard sign identifying your company.   Payment should accompany the contract or may be paid with a credit card on our website. If payment is not included, the booth contract space will be held for 14 days before reverting to the end of the request list. 

Sponsorships are available this year.  Priority will be given to our sponsors on booth selections.  Please see the options on the attached sponsor page if you would like to be a sponsor.

Because there is no way to secure the booths and materials, we are considering only one day of exhibits; however, we will leave that decision up to the individual exhibitors.  The Vines is in a safe area so there would not be any reason to be concerned about outsiders coming in.

Exhibits are a special part of our annual conference.  The ALA Conference Committee is always looking for new ideas to make the exhibits an attraction for our attendees.  

We hope you can join us this year!  If you have questions regarding exhibits, please call or email me.
