This event has been a tradition, now named in the memory of Trish Ralph, who was a strong leader and amazing educator/mentor of the region for decades.
We will be kicking off the the year to come by offering connection and welcoming new members. Students come from across the region to experience hands on workshops and to learn what USITT has to offer for their future.
Robe Lighting Inc. is offering 2 training workshops, one hands-on with the Robospot, and will be bringing an assortment of instruments and a console.
We will be giving away Passes to the 2027 Annual Conference & Stage Expo held in Baltimore to some lucky Students and, of course, have USITT swag available!
