Exhibits, retreats and conferences are other areas for collaboration. One of ACA's initial visions was to serve as an information clearinghouse for guilds. The ACA Regional Representative network has three different levels. At the base are the Guild Liaisons, who are individuals appointed by each ACA member guild. The purpose of this network is to brainstorm together.
All guilds have successes to share and challenges to face.
By addressing them as a community, we can often offer solutions. This network system allows guilds to efficiently obtain information and ideas from other guilds that have addressed same questions, rather than a guild having to contact numerous guilds individually. We are grateful to these Representatives for helping ACA to realize this vision.
