Where do I find a western regional membership form?
Hi Pat – The membership is for the Society for Photographic Eduction – there is not a specific SPE WEST membership. See “Become a Member” above.
Please send me information on how to become a member of SPE. I need to know when the next conference is for the western part of the group. I live in California. When is the next conference in California and where.
Hi Susie – to become a member visit http://www.spenational.org and fill out an online registration. The WEST conference is typically held in November each year. The 2012 National conference will be held in San Francisco 3/22-3/25 – stay tuned for more details!
GOOD WORK!
