The Cascade Media Convergence is an opportunity for community based media organizations, journalists and artists from throughout the region to convene in a common space to learn from each other, network and further collaboration.

Endorsement means that a group will send at least one representative who will either present on a topic, take part in a break out session, or assist in the presentation of an evening event. Endorsing groups will also promote the convergence to the best of their abilities.

Please remember to register all participants by visiting the registration page.
