Join us for Day 1, Day 2, or both!

Monday, October 25, 2021

The first day of the Keystone Nonprofit Conference is all about the intensives. Join us, in-person at the Bayfront Convention Center, for one of three options:

  1. If You're Not at the Table, You're on the Menu: Engaging Nonprofit Leaders in Public Policy with Denny Civic Solutions
  2. Now What? Leveraging Lessons Learned From the Pandemic to Bolster Your Organization's Fundraising with Carter

  3. Powerfully Persuade Through Storytelling with Matt Zaun and Dan Koval

Each intensive will run from 10:00 AM until 4:00 PM and will offer time for breaks, group work, and lunch (of course!). You can plan to leave each intensive with actionable tools in your desired subject area.

The second day of the Keystone Nonprofit Conference will resemble a typical conference layout, with a twist! Attendees can choose to attend breakout sessions in-person at the Bayfront Convention Center (more session options + exhibitors + food + prizes... this is an attractive option!) or virtually. Virtual attendees will view the sessions in real time as they are streamed to our event platform. 

Tuesday sessions will focus on Fundraising; Marketing and Communications; Governance; Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; Leadership and Management; and Operations. Build a custom agenda that works for your learning wants and needs! 

Join us for pre-conference events, too:

Attendees have options:

  • In-person on Monday
  • In-person on Tuesday
    • or make it a Combo and join us for Monday AND Tuesday in-person!
  • Virtual on Tuesday

Choose what works for you. Let us know if you have any questions we can help with.
