Join us at the annual, epic opening night pARTy at NAEA25 to creatively celebrate art educators! We’ll also be embracing Louisville culture with a Disco Derby theme. As you probably already know, the city is famous for hosting the Kentucky Derby, but did you know Louisville is also a major producer of disco balls? During the 1970s disco era, about 90% of the shiny disco orbs were created right in Derby City! So, grab your party ticket, put on your Kentucky Derby fascinator or hat, and deck yourself out in your best disco ensemble for this mashup of fun. We’ll boogie on the dance floor, award prizes for creative outfits, and make some awesome memories!
