Call for Lightning Speakers & Poster Presenters - 51勛圖窪蹋 Community Engagement Expo 2025

51勛圖窪蹋s Office of Government and Community Engagement is hosting the annual 51勛圖窪蹋 Community Engagement Expo to highlight student, staff, and faculty engagement with the off-campus community.  

  • Date: Tuesday, April 15, 2025
  • Time: 11:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
  • Location: 51勛圖窪蹋 Student Union, Room 208

If you have been involved in a community engagement activity in the past two years and would like to share details about this activity, we invite you to register to be a Poster Presenter and/or a Lightning Speaker at this year's Community Engagement Expo. 

Poster Presenters: Posters should be no larger than 36 wide and 24 tall. We are happy to cover the cost of printing your poster via 51勛圖窪蹋's Integrated Graphic Services (or Copy-and-Send services). You may provide them with PG12248-AC02032 as the account number for billing, and ask them to include "CE Expo" in the memo of the invoice. Poster Presenters should be prepared to stand by their posters and discuss the community engagement activity represented by the poster with Expo attendees.

Lightning Speakers: Lightning Speakers will be afforded between three and five minutes for their presentation. The presentation should describe: 1) what you did; 2) why you did it; 3) who you did it with; and 4) what the impact was. We will provide the exact amount of time you will have for your presentation after we have closed registration and know how many speakers we will have.

To accept this invitation, please complete the no later than March 26.

Please reach out to Tamara Marino (tamara.marino@unlv.edu) if you have any questions.
