VRA Conference Minneapolis 2024

Kick off the second day of the conference by sharing a meal with fellow VRA members! Grab some breakfast at the buffet and join your friends and colleagues around the tables in Ballroom B. Stay tuned for a short presentation honoring this year's Travel Award recipients, a few announcements, and an exclusive preview of our 2025 conference host city!

You are invited to attend one of the big social events of VRA 2024 Minneapolis! Start your evening by visiting with VRA exhibitors as they showcase their products and services. Enjoy crudités and charcuterie, and use a complimentary drink ticket at the bar while you mingle with the poster presenters and learn more about their research and projects. Catch up with friends as you peruse the array of wonderful raffle prizes sponsored by vrcHost. Buy your tickets, with proceeds benefiting the VRA Travel Awards Endowment, and then prepare for your number to potentially be called by our guest MC. Please plan to join your colleagues and attend this exciting event!
