Conference Overview

The GNSI annual conference is a national meeting organized to unite and improve the field of science illustration and illustrators. The 2010 conference will be held at the McKimmon Conference and Training Center located on the campus of North Carolina State University in Raleigh. This is a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to education. While you are at the conference you will feel like you are in the lap of luxury, but the good news is you can do that on a scientific illustrator’s budget! The Center boasts two magnificent computer labs for the digital folks among us.
