What to Expect

• 1.Plan to arrive 10-15 minutes early for check in and find your session room, the museum can get busy in the morning and parking is limited around Meadow Brook Hall.
• 2.Wear comfortable shoes because you will move between panel rooms and enjoy a guided tour of Meadow Brook Hall, which involves some stairs and walking.
• 3.Bring a notebook or device for quick notes during panels and breakout sessions so you can capture ideas and questions as they come up.
• 4.Breakout sessions are small enough to chat in a relaxed setting, so use them to meet other attendees and potential mentors without feeling pressured.
• 5.After the panels, join the Meadow Brook Hall tour to see the historic space up close and contextualize what you learned in the sessions.
