Welcome to the interactive web schedule for the 2019 Vermont Fest Conference! Click on the "Helpful Info" section below for tips on navigating this site, and building your own agenda. (as of November 15, 2019)
PLEASE NOTE: Some sessions have a limited capacity. Seating for all sessions is first-come, first-serve. Advance RSVP is not an option; adding an item to your agenda in Sched does not guarantee you a seat. Look for LIMITED CAPACITY in the session title to see which sessions are going to close their doors after capacity is hit and read the session description to see how many people they will accept.
I’ll share successes and failures as I let go of grading with guest judges and local clients. Students learn skills and then compete to please their patrons. After working with surprise judges the students head out into the community to give back to our small businesses that always support our school. Students plan their time, work with deadlines, and sometimes bounce back from “being fired”. Students finish with an Open Studio proposal following their bliss.
