Presented Wednesday, September 2, 11:00am, Virtual

Join us for an orientation session designed to help you hit the ground running at the 2026 Artist Showcase & Conference in Helena! This workshop provides a comprehensive walkthrough of the conference's unique structure, highlighting how MPAC’s small, relaxed environment fosters a culture of meaningful connection with professionals and Montana communities. Attendees will gain insights into the Montana performing arts ecosystem, learning how to navigate the specific needs of rural and volunteer-led presenters while building the long-term relationships necessary for successful touring across the state.

We’ll also walk through all the practical tools, from using the digital dashboard and presenter directory to understanding the color-coded schedule so you know exactly where to focus your energy. You’ll get "pro tips" on Resource Room etiquette, strategies for those high-energy "Five for Five" pitches, and why you definitely don’t want to miss "Turn the Tables" or the Saturday night Jam Session. By the end of this workshop, you’ll be all set to make your time in Helena as productive and fun as possible!
