I'm curious about the 'Gallery Reception' on Thursday. Is this an invite only event? If not, can anyone shed a bit of light on it, what happens, dress code, etc. Thanks.
photos from last year...
Ted,
Everything at the AAW symposium is pretty casual. These three photo galleries are from last year's Thursday night gallery reception:

So by casual you mean that in addition to dress code, anyone can attend the Gallery Reception?
Also, where can one find more info about what the demonstrator has planned for their particular presentations? I know there are some listed in the last issue of the magazine but there are quite a few not there.
Thanks again.

Ted,
Everyone is invited to the reception. And, all paid attendants will receive a large handbook that will include a pretty comprehensive set of demonstrator provided info packets. Beyond that, there are several configurations of demonstration scheduling and modest demo description info on the main site, located here - same link as in the original post, above.

Thanks, Ed! And yes, the handbook is pretty comprehensive, the best manual I have seen for any conference I have attended. I like to plan ahead and was just hoping that there was something available to help me narrow down the 4 or 5 sessions that I would like to attend for each time slot. 
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
