Facilitated Networking Sessions
Monday, July 13, 9:15 am - 10:30 am
Tuesday, July 14, 10:45 am - 12:00 pm
We'll kick off the first full day of the conference by doing what LHAT does best: sharing best practices from around the nation. We learned during the pandemic that LHAT Happy Hours were a great way for members to stay connected and hear what others were doing to remain relevant in their communities. We started a live version of this type of “informal” networking three years ago and it's received rave reviews since, so we're building in even more time for this type of networking in Indianapolis.
We'll begin the first discussion as one large group, then divide into 4-5 smaller groups so you can take a deep dive into any topic desired. Share things you have learned since the Pittsburgh conference or ask questions about topics that are most important to your theatre's future success. Think of it as an in-person LHAT-CHAT Network! Breakout group demographics will be announced when we get closer to the conference.
Tuesday afternoon, we'll gather again for more networking using the same format, but this time, we'll break into smaller groups based on different topics or demographics than the day before. We want to make sure you get the chance to connect with as many different peers as possible to share experiences and ask for advice. There's no better opportunity for you to tap into the League's “Brain Trust.” Whether you're a first-time attendee, new to the historic theatre field, or have been at your theatre for many years, there's always something new you can learn to improve your theatre, solve a problem, or make your job easier so you don't have to “reinvent the proverbial wheel.”
