Conventions

Each summer, AFHE sponsors a home education convention and curriculum fair in Downtown Phoenix.   

The 27th Annual Arizona Home Educators' Convention & Curriculum Fair will be held:

July 23 and 24, 2010
Phoenix Convention Center
South Building

Early registration will open in March 2010 and will close June 23, 2010. Current AFHE members and those who have attended the convention in the past two years will receive the early registration form which will be included in the spring convention issue of the Arizona Home Education Journal, AFHE's quarterly print publication, a full-color magazine. The spring convention issue of the magazine is scheduled to arrive in mailboxes in early March 2010. The early registration form will be posted on the website at that time as well.
