Investing in the Future
The Visitor Studies Association (VSA) presents two programs designed to help bring new talent to the field of visitor studies and to the Visitor Studies Association. VSA members and others involved in informal learning are urged to identify potential candidates and to let them know about these two dynamic programs. We look forward to meeting the 2010 applicants and award winners in Phoenix, Arizona at the 2010 Visitor Studies Conference. The deadline for submission of the Student Scholarship and April Award is March 1, 2010.
Announcing the 14th Annual April Award
The April Award brings colleagues new to audience research and evaluation to their first Visitor Studies Conference. This award was generously established by Dr. Marilyn Hood to honor the memory of her longtime research assistant, April Lahm. The 14th annual April Award will be presented at the Visitor Studies Conference in Phoenix, Arizona, July 29-31, 2010. April Award recipients share VSA’s passion for improving the quality of visitor experiences. Help VSA nurture this new talent and grow the association by encouraging eligible candidates to apply for the April Award.
