History buffs will recognize how fitting it is for us to meet there: Although it was intended to be a "Holy Experiment," the state of Pennsylvania has arguably been a model for secularism, religious liberty, and the separation of religion from government since its founding in 1681.
This will be my first time attending an American Atheists convention. And although I've heard quite a few stories about previous years, I suspect 2024 is going to be one for the books.
There's a lot to do and discuss this year, including rolling out our organization's five-year strategic plan. As always, we have an outstanding lineup of activists, community leaders, politicians, academics, and more. And there will be a variety of presentations, workshops, exhibits, entertainment, and all kinds of opportunities to socialize.
It's that community aspect – the chance to meet like-minded people and make some memories together – that I am most looking forward to. Plus, we'll be in the heart of a city teeming with history, culture, and, I hear, cheesesteaks. If this all excites you, too, I really hope you will register today to join us!
See you in Philly,
