The 2023 Summit is going to be different.

Since 2011, the Summit has been the unique gathering for anyone with an interest in public science events. By 2019, the professional community of practice emerging around the Summit was robust and growing. Then...well, we all know what happened to live events in 2020. Now that public science events are once again active, that community is also ready to grow. So this year the Summit is dedicated to preparing for the next evolution of our community of practice.

In a typical year, the Summit experience is designed to uplift and inspire event organizers. This year, we'll use our time together to set the direction and shape of our community of practice. More time will be dedicated to considering decisions about what we want to do together in the future. If you are interested in drawing on your own experience to work towards a supportive community that moves us all forward, then you'll find this meeting uplifting and inspiring. Please join us!
