Welcome to the 2024 AIN Virtual Conference

This year’s AIN Online Conference is our 29th annual conference, and AIN's fourth virtual conference.

Our conference runs from November 20th - November 23rd, 2024 - all online!

And this year's theme is... Applied Improvisation: Against All Odds

 

What does that mean?

Applied Improvisation: Against All Odds is a theme that encourages individuals to embrace the principles of improv to overcome challenges, push boundaries, and achieve extraordinary results. It's about recognizing that life is full of unexpected twists and turns, and that by adopting an improvisational mindset, we can navigate these challenges with grace, creativity, and resilience.

The conference will feature keynote speakers, workshops, panel discussions, and performances. Participants will have the opportunity to learn about the latest research in applied improvisation, share their own experiences, and build relationships with other changemakers. The conference will culminate in a call to action for how applied improvisation can be used against all odds!
