Register NOW for the 16th Annual Meeting
and Conference!
We are excited to return to Pittsburgh! ASBA’s long and happy history with the Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation is celebrated again with our attendance at the opening of Hunt’s 13th International Exhibition. Many of the artists in the exhibition will be teaching conference workshops or demonstrating and discussing their techniques. As always, there is a wonderful mix of international, national and local artists and speakers offering a wide range of educational and entertaining options. We are pleased to offer one pre-conference workshop with Katie Lee, and two post-conference workshops with Billy Showell and Wendy Hollender.
Wonderful Botanical Art Learning Opportunities
Many activities are included in your registration fee. Additionally, most meals are included, such as buffet breakfasts all three days, lunches all three days and Saturday evening’s banquet. An “Italian Villa” snack buffet on Friday evening is also included to enjoy along with Wildflower Forum, Grant Recipients' Presentations and Artist’s Trading Cards. And we are all cordially invited to be the Hunt Institute’s guests at the exhibition’s opening reception on Thursday evening.
