Read more about Design Storm! registration and rules.

We can't wait for the 2010 Region 3 Festival at Saginaw Valley State next January 5-9! As soon as we can, we will post here all of the info you need to know to register your design, technology and management entries into the Design and Technology Exposition.

We'll announce updates and registration over the Region 3 ListServ (join using the link to the right) and the Region 3 Facebook Site. This likely won’t happen until late summer or early fall 2009.

In 2010 we will introduce "Prop-a-Palooza" to the Expo as part of the Craft and Technology Showcase. Props designers and artisans may bring any prop they designed and/or built from any production done by their school or created as part of a class. Entries will receive feedback from a props professional, and outstanding work will be recognized.

And look for this year's Costume Parade during the evening of scenes to continue in 2010!

Find out more about existing Design and Technology events below!
