About this event

We invite you to join us at the 2025 conference celebrating the 35th Anniversary of IGMD held in theBitsy Irby Visual Arts and Dance Center at Belhaven University, in Jackson Mississippi!

If you are an active member, please log in to your account (link in blue bar above or upper right corner of this page) and register as an active member. If you have never been a guild member, register as an attendee and you will receive one free year of membership. If you are a lapsed member, now is the time to renew!

***HOUSING*** The Guild has reserved the beautiful and historic Peachtree House (https://www.peachtreehousems.com/) as the "official" conference accommodations. Just across the street from the Belhaven campus, and three short blocks from the building that houses the Department of Dance, it is the housing closest to the conference, and will serve as the gathering place for for the Opening Reception on the evening of Friday, September 5. You may, of course, stay anywhere in the area, but this option is convenient to everything, relatively affordable, and provides a more communal experience for those interested in that.

The house is divided into 4 apartments with two bedrooms and one bathroom each. Each apartment has a kitchen and a living room. You may book a room with one king, queen, or double bed (by yourself or with another person), or a single bed in a room shared with one other person.

Prices vary by room and can be found as you view and select your accommodations. Earliest check-in is on September 4 and latest check-out on September 8. Price is the same should you plan to arrive after September 4 or check out before September 8.

If you plan to arrive before the 4th or after the 8th, you may make reservations to do so, just contact conference host Owen Rockwell at owenrockwell@gmail.com and/or (917) 628-7050 to arrange to extend your visit at the Peachtree, as he is in contact with the owner. Cost for this varies by rooms and by number of occupants.
