The NCMEA Board voted to approve an IN PERSON Conference for November 2021. We recognize that music educators are ready to gather together for professional development and networking. We are working with the Benton Convention Center staff to be sure we follow the current guidelines for social distancing, mask wearing and hygiene. The Conference Planning team is currently inviting presenters. We hope to have a draft schedule sometime this summer. Registration will open mid-August.
We are currently working on the viability of hosting the Elementary, Middle and High School Honors Chorus ensembles and NC Honors Orchestra. We hope to be able to share more information by the end of the school year.
We will be inviting music industry vendors as well as colleges and universities to exhibit with us at The Benton Convention Center. See the Exhibitor Information page for registration information.
The NCMEA Board is very excited to be able to provide this opportunity for NCMEA members.
