Annual Conference

     

    Join us at Rockhurst University for the
    2026 JASPA Annual Conference!

     

    We are very excited to head to Kansas City, Missouri, and Rockhurst University for the JASPA Annual Conference. The one-day event will include the Annual Conference, JASPA Banquet & Awards, and Club JASPA (evening social). The conference will begin on Saturday, March 7th in the late morning (after 11:00 AM CST) and all events will conclude by 10:30 PM. All events will take place on the Rockhurst University campus in Kansas City, Missouri.

     

    While in town, Kansas City has a ton of things to do, so get excited to spend some time in the city! Some fun things to do in Kansas City: River Market, Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, American Jazz Museum, Nelson-Atkins Art Museum, WWI Monument and Museum, Loose Park, National Museum of Toys and Miniatures, Kansas City Country Club Plaza, and don’t forget KC has the Best BBQ in the World.
