Thanks for a Wonderful Conference
The 2016 GIA Conference in Saint Paul, Minnesota, was filled with insightful sessions, inspiring keynotes, and powerful performances. GIA would like to thank everyone who attended the conference this year, especially those who helped make this conference possible. Conference attendees have received an email asking them to complete a short feedback survey to help GIA plan for next year’s conference in Detroit, Michigan (Saturday, October 28, 2017 through Tuesday, October 31, 2017).
