2018 AHEAD Conference Awards Dinner and Closing Celebration

Friday, July 21, 6:30 – 9:30 pm 

Following its successful 40th anniversary celebration, AHEAD looks forward to once again ending the conference with a dinner and dance.  

AHEAD's closing celebration is the perfect way to be together with new and old friends, reflect on the week, enjoy traditional New Mexican food, and, after honoring AHEAD's award recipients, dance the night away! AHEAD members who have served the Association and impacted the profession through their innovations, service, and scholarship will be recognized with peer-nominated awards, including the prestigious Ronald E. Blosser Award, for outstanding service to AHEAD, the AHEAD Honor for Meritorious Contribution, Excellence in Diversity & Inclusion Award. 

As a membership association and a profession that relies on case-by-case analysis, getting to know colleagues is the best professional development opportunity there is! We hope you’ll stay. Enjoy the celebration. and make the most of your trip. (Dress is casual or as fun as you'd like it to be.)
