How to Register in 6 Easy Steps 

Step 1: Create an NPAC account

  • Visit the NPAC registration site at performingartsconvention.org.  As a new user, you will need to create an account using a valid e-mail address.
  • Fill out your name, email address, and create a password. This information will then be emailed to you as confirmation of your account creation. Now you can login and register!
  • If you are registering more than one person from your organization, you will need to create new user accounts for each registration form you want to create. You cannot complete multiple registration forms within one user account.

Step 2: Create your registration form

  • Go back to the NPAC registration site and login.
  • Once you’re logged in, scroll to the bottom of the page and choose "Create My Registration Form" button from the pull-down menu at the bottom. Select either the 2008 Convention Registration form (for Attendees) or the 2008 Exhibitor Registration Form.
  • When the page refreshes, scroll down and click the green "Edit" icon just to the right of the form.

Step 3: Register for the NPAC Convention & Events

  • The next few pages will gather some information and start the NPAC registration process. Be sure to save your work at the bottom of every page.
  • Fill out your contact information. Indicate the organizations of which you are a member. Be sure to select League of American.
  • Choose the Individual Registration rate unless there are multiple people attending from your organization. If multiple people are attending, please complete a separate registration form for each person. However, select the reduced registration rate for each person. For example, if you have 6 people coming, you would select the reduced registration rate for all 6 people.
  • NPAC is offering three Pre-Convention Seminars, presented by National Arts Strategies, for an additional fee. If you would like to attend one of these on Tuesday, June 10, choose it by changing the quantity on the right to 1.
  • NPAC is also offering Pre-Convention Seminars on Wednesday morning. If you would like to attend one of the NPAC Pre-Convention Seminars on Wednesday, June 11, choose the seminar you are interested in on this page.

Please note: The League is ALSO offering six Pre-Convention Seminars on Wednesday, June 11, at a rate of $165 for members. You will have an option to choose one of these later in the registration process. You may only register for ONE Pre-Convention Seminar each day.

  • There is no charge for the Opening Welcome Reception; however, you must RSVP by "registering" for it. Change the quantity on the right to 1.
  • You can choose to purchase a box lunch on Thursday, if you would like. This is not required, just an option available to you. Change the quantity to 1 next to the type of box lunch you want.

Step 4: Register for the League of American Orchestras Convention Package

  • Select League of American Orchestras as the National Service Organization (NSO) for whose package you wish to register.
  • Choose the appropriate member, nonmember, or special rate for the League Package.
  • If you wish to add a League Pre-Convention Orchestra Leadership Academy Seminar and you did not register for any other seminar at the same time, you may choose ONE at this time.
  • Select the League ticketed events you wish to attend.
  • If you are interested in attending either the Colorado Symphony or Opera Colorado performance, you have the option to purchase tickets now. You are welcome to attend other performances, but will have to contact individual box offices to arrange tickets.

Step 5: Review your registration

  • A summary of all the items for which you have registered will be displayed. Check to see that all of the information is correct. Double-check to make sure that none of your sessions conflict. If you have errors, go to the page with errors and make corrections. Be sure to save your work!

If you have a time conflict, you can click the Back button in your browser to return to the previous page. Then you can use the links in the upper-right hand corner to navigate back to the page where the error was made.
