Wednesday, June 17, 2026 to Saturday, June 20, 2026

There are a VERY limited number of tables available. Please submit your request asap. 

• If you are interested in a no-cost space in a separate area (no electricity, no table or chairs), please indicate on the form below in Question 4. You would provide a free-standing display but would not be expected to staff it. Traffic would primarily be around meal times. For some possible ideas, google or amazon the search term “free-standing tall sign holder”. We would provide the floor space, you would provide everything else.

We encourage all exhibits to incorporate the theme “Astonish” for message consistency. The 42nd Annual Session will be held in-person with online plenary participation available for those who are at high risk.

The 42nd Annual Session is currently accepting requests for exhibit tables in our event space per the following guidelines:

1. Visit our web page at http://www.calpacumc.org/ac2026 for more information about the schedule and other resources.
