• Working with the Virginia Living Museum was refreshing! They were definitely one of the best venues we worked with during SYTA’s Annual Conference in Hampton Roads. They are ‘wild about meetings’!

• The Organization chose to book the entire Mariners' Museum complex for their September SeaFest Showcase with 100 exhibitions and 750 attendees because it's one of the Peninsula's best assets with indoor and outdoor venues and a beautiful setting.
