NASAA 2026 Learning Series

Join your colleagues from all of the states and jurisdictions for professional development sessions designed around the current needs of state arts agencies. During the NASAA 2025 Learning Series, participants explore subjects relevant to the daily work they undertake serving their constituents, and delve deeper into timely topics and research. Sessions offer state arts agencies a valuable opportunity to learn with and from one another, sharing an abundance of ideas to inform, inspire and energize our work.

All staff and council/board members from state and jurisdictional arts agencies and regional arts organizations are encouraged to participate. To make this program accessible to all members, NASAA has waived registration fees for this series.
