Northland staff and allies often set up booths at national conferences, conventions, marches or festivals where we sell our products and interact with the participants. Below is a list of recent events and upcoming ones on our calendar. At some events we present workshops on the uses of art and creativity in organizing. Look for us if you attend any of these conferences or come by our booth or table if you live nearby. Let us know if there is an upcoming event you think we should consider. We attend those that we can if we have the people to go and the event has the constituency and attendance to be successful for us. We also like to send bundles of catalogs or other literature to events we are not able to come to.
