AATE National Conference

We are excited to host AATE in Seattle, a city known for its diverse neighborhoods. Our theme of "Illumination" aims to shine a light on artists, companies, practices, and communities that are often overlooked in national conferences. Throughout the event, attendees will have the chance to explore various artistic and educational communities in the greater Seattle area, attending presentations, performances, and engaging with these communities to understand their voices and resources. We will also pay tribute to the indigenous communities of the Pacific Northwest, who cherish and protect the distinct characteristics of this remarkable region.
