20 years of ACES conferences — and 20 program covers

March 30, 2016 By Gerri Berendzen Conferences

With the 2016 American Copy Editors Society conference this week in Portland, Oregon, ACES is celebrating 20 years of  holding the premier editing conference in the U.S.

ACES conferences have always featured high-quality, low-cost training from acclaimed experts.

To celebrate, we thought you might enjoy seeing the program covers from those 20 conferences. As ACES has grown, so has the size of the conference — and the amount of color in our programs!

In the early years, the program was only available in print. But now it’s available digitally as well.

The program are, from left: (first row) 1997 Chapel Hill, North Carolina; 1998 Portland, Oregon; 1999, Dallas; 2000 Baltimore; 2001 Long Beach, California; (second row) 2002 Louisville, Kentucky; 2003, Chicago; 2004 Houston; 2005 Hollywood, California; 2006 Cleveland, Ohio;  (third row) 2007 Miami; 2008 Denver; 2009 Minneapolis; 2010 Philadelphia; 2011 Phoenix; (fourth row) 2012 New Orleans; 2013 St. Louis; 2014 Las Vegas; 2015 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; 2016 a return trip to Portland.
