WHAT TO EXPECT
The NAQGCON is a very special event, it’s an opportunity to meet other quillers and learn new techniques. All conference events are held in the hotel (two (2) group meals [included in the Registration Fee or the Meals Only Fee], competition, classes/demos, and public viewing hours). For a general schedule, visit http://naqg.com/naqgcon. Please remember to bring your own quilling tools, glue, scissors, etc. (packed inside your luggage) for the classes and extra paper to practice all the things you will see and learn. Your name tag will be provided by us!
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
If you would like to volunteer to teach a class/workshop, give demos or “Make-it/Take-its,” please let me know as soon as possible, and return to me the Volunteer Registration Form (online). When teachers/classes are confirmed, I will post the class descriptions and notify attendees when to choose classes. We are extremely grateful for any teachers & demonstrators. On Saturday, we need several quilling demonstrators because we expect a lot of guests coming to see our work! If we have enough people helping, we can schedule different times so no one has to demonstrate for the whole three hours.
VENDORS
If you would like to be a vendor, please fill out the online form as soon as possible. Table space is limited and first come, first served.
GIVEAWAYS/RAFFLE
If you plan to donate any giveaways or items for the raffle table please let me know as soon as possible. If you plan to send them to me by mail include a note inside the parcel so I know for what purpose the items are intended. Please do not mail anything (packages/parcels) directly to the hotel.
This event takes a lot of work and planning. I’m relying on you to register as early as possible, so I know how many to plan for.
You may contact me at 817-781-0478 or via email at naqgconhost@naqg.org with any questions or if you need help with your hotel reservation.
