2023 Joint Conference Presented by the Arkansas Master Naturalists & AEEA

The 2023 conference was a joint effort between AEEA and the Arkansas Master Naturalists. We combined our love of the Natural State with our goals for education to bring something new. See below for the conference program with session descriptions, event highlights, exhibitors, and sponsors of the event.

Plan on joining us in 2024 for hands-on workshops, breakout sessions, and field experiences. The conference is a great learning and networking opportunity for classroom teachers, non-formal educators, college students, naturalists, and conservation professionals from across the state.
