Get a head start on the 2026 conference season by hearing directly from the people who book the shows. Facilitated by Ron DeStefano of EPIC Arts Management, this virtual panel features experienced Montana presenters  who will share their unique priorities and goals for the upcoming October Showcase & Conference in Helena. This session is designed to help artists and agents understand the presenter's perspective on everything from what materials to bring to your booth, to Resource Room etiquette, to our unique Turn-The-Tables and Jam Session events. Participants will gain actionable insights into how their work fits the diverse needs of Montana’s venues and learn how to build the long-term relationships that drive successful block-booking across the state.

 

Join us to learn the insider tips needed to hit the ground running and make the most of your time at the MPAC Conference in Helena this October.
