The workshop committee of New England SCBWI welcomes proposals for the 2011 Spring conference, "Celebrating Milestones." There is a lot to celebrate, as this is the 25th annual regional conference in New England and the 40th year of SCBWI itself.

As always, the conference will have a strong focus on craft. We will also celebrate history and traditions in SCBWI, in our stories and artwork, and in our lives. Let's set aside a weekend to celebrate large accomplishments, tiny steps along the way, and milestones yet to come. 

This is one of the largest regional SCBWI conferences, and we welcome proposals from everyone. We also encourage artists and writers of color, those who are differently abled, and others from underrepresented groups to propose conference workshops.
