Dear Exhibitor,

The Literacy for All Conference is the Northeast region’s leading professional development event for educators in grades PreK–8. At the 2013 conference, there were over 1,300 attendees. Participants represented 23 states and 300+ school districts, as well as international schools in Bermuda, Canada, Mexico, and the United Kingdom.

This November 2–4, 2014, more than 1,300 educators will gather in Providence for the 25th annual event. Exhibiting at the event or supporting it through sponsorships are wonderful ways to access a diverse network of possible consumers, and align your company with the region’s leading literacy conference. Exhibit dates are November 3–4, 2014.

Exhibits will be located in the pre-function space on the 5th floor of the Rhode Island Convention Center — right outside the workshop rooms where there is heavy foot traffic.

Enhance your company’s success and tap into our large consumer market by exhibiting at the Literacy for All Conference. Join other industry leaders in showcasing your products and services. For more information, visit www.lesley.edu/literacyforall. When you’re ready to reserve a booth, please do so through our secure online registration system at www.regonline.com/exhibit2014.
