Other Options for Contributing to GA Programming
Planning Committee Sponsored Progamming
The GA Planning Committee solicited program proposals for the 2009 General Assembly in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Distinguished speakers and significant, innovative programs that will appeal to many UUs attending GA were sought. Lectures, workshops, worships, presentations and performances (with minimal technical requirements) were also considered. The Planning Committee particularly sought programming that reflects our Association's anti-racist, anti-oppressive commitment.
The Planning Committee gave priority to congregations, UU-related organizations, individuals, and community groups that would otherwise not be eligible to sponsor GA programming.
All applications were due by October 15, 2008. Late applications will not be considered. Application Guidelines (PDF, 2 pages)
