IBA Newsletter: June 2020

Dear members,

We hope this month’s newsletter finds you well.

With the evolving status of the pandemic and the world’s response to these uncertain times, biennials have continued to face adjustments in schedules with safety in mind. We thank those who have reached out to us with updates and look forward to continuing to receive news about biennials and their responses to a complex time in history.

In addition, the 7th General Assembly scheduled to take place this year will be working around an online format to ensure the safety of our members. Details will be shared as they are made available.

As always, if you have any news or information you would like to share regarding materials from your biennial, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us at info@biennialassociation.org.

We would also like to encourage connecting with us via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to receive updates about our member biennials and our own planned events.

Thank you for your continued support.
