2026 Conference Exhibitors & Vendors
May 18-19, 2026 
Thomas College

Exhibitor and vendor presence is a huge part of our conference experience and vital to our success. We're grateful to our many repeat exhibitors over the years and look forward to welcoming new folks this year in Waterville, Maine at Thomas College. 

Our exhibitor setup at Thomas College is in the middle of the action, Spann Student Commons, the area outside of the dining hall and a large meeting room. It’s also where the registration table will be located. Conference attendees will be passing through this space throughout the day and there are at least two designated exhibitor times each day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon where coffee and snacks will be served. 

Monday 5/18:

  • 10:15am-10:45am (coincides with author book signing)
  • 11:35am-12pm (note: the lunch period for attendees is 12-1pm so there will be a lot of traffic in and out of of the building during that time)
  • 3:00pm-3:30pm

Tuesday 5/19:

  • 10:00am-10:30am (coincides with author book signing)
  • 1:50pm-2:30pm (there are two conference sessions after this block)

All exhibitor tables are 6ft tables with a black tablecloth. Extra tables will not be available for purchase this year with your registration. If there are unfilled tables on April 20th, they will be offered to interested parties and invoiced directly. 

Vendor set up is currently scheduled for Monday morning. Exact time TBA.
