BarCamp

A bit of curiosity goes a long way.
Heck it might even take you on stage at BarCamp. BarCamp Omaha is a user generated conference where the speakers are everyday folks talking about what interests them. Talks aren’t scheduled or planned until just before the conference starts, and anyone can give a talk.

Curious, but don’t want to take the stage? That’s okay too.
At BarCamp, you won’t find a predetermined speaker list or a line of suits passing out business cards. What you will find is some shaggy dude in a t-shirt talking about moonshine, a web developer talking about the best practices in SEO, or a world traveler sharing their experiences. BarCamp is a chance to network, learn something new, and share what awakens your curiosity. Come one, come all.”

FAQ

When do I get my BarCamp t-shirt?
Tees are sponsored by Agape Red. The tees are Next Level men's sized tri-blend crew.
Note: Due to the nature of having tees available on the day of the event, we send the order at the beginning of August. We add in an estimation contingency so everyone gets a tee. We cannot guarantee your indicated size from registration will still be available the day of the event, so pick up your shirt early in the morning! Use the tee ticket you'll receive Saturday morning and head to the merch table to pick up your tee or any other special BarCamp merch you've been looking for.

Is my ticket transferrable?
If you're unable to attend BarCamp after purchasing your ticket, contact barcampchair@nebraska.aiga.org to transfer or refund your ticket. Ability to do so expires after July 31, 2017.

Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?
Nope, you don't need to – save those trees! Just be sure to bring your ID for check-in at the opening party so you can get your drink ticket.

We're inclusive of everyone. Take a moment to read our Code of Conduct.
