VWBPE 2020 Social Program | Virtual Worlds Best Practices in Education

Be sure to save the dates and times for all of the social events at this year’s Virtual Worlds Best Practices In Education 2020 STELLAR Conference.

Social activities during the conference enhance the professional connections we make. They encourage networking with friends and colleagues, both new and old, from around the world.

The kick-off of this exciting conference takes place with the Grand Opening Ribbon Cutting Ceremony at the Gateway, featuring classical piano music, snacks, and a few words from the organizers. We encourage you to grab your swag bag and explore the exhibits.

This year’s creative, fun events take advantage of what is not possible in real life but is easy in a virtual world. You can ride on a rocket or dance inside a giant planet! You won’t want to miss our great live music, and Lightning Productions’ closing tribute to David Bowie as “Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.”
