We’re already starting to plan WordCamp for Publishers 2019, which means we have one very important thing to do first – pick a new city!
Unlike most WordCamps, our organizing team is distributed across the US, so it’s important for us to have a local organizer to help facilitate venue coordination, event logistics, swag delivery, and much more.
If you (as an individual, or a group of individuals) are interested in helping with this and have a great suggestion for a city, please fill out our application form. We have a preference for cities that are underrepresented media markets so we can bring them an amazing event they might not normally experience.
We’ve left most fields optional, but please fill out as much information as you have. If you have any questions or other supporting materials that don’t fit here, don’t hesitate to contact us here: https://2018-chicago.publishers.wordcamp.org/contact/.
