Thank you for attending MAPP Fete 2024:
Sunny Side Up!
We were thrilled to welcome over 160 MAPP Alumni to Fête 2024: Sunny Side Up over Zoom and in-person in Philly!
***
Fete is the annual MAPP Alumni Association convening that brings together and celebrates our growing, diverse,and engaged community of 700+ MAPP alumni. Fête is a delightful celebration for MAPP alumni the day before the Penn-hosted MAPP Summit.
With our Fete 2024 theme of "Sunny Side Up" we are eager to "look at the bright side" with you, including delicious food, uplifting music, facilitated learning, meaningful connection, and a virtual Fête component for MAPP Alumni who can not attend Fete in person in Philadelphia.
Recent additional announcements about Fete include:
Virtual Fete: If you're unable to attend in-person Fete, we are hosting Virtual Fete from 9am-1pm ET over Zoom. Socialize and network with other virtual Fete attendees for an hour, then join in for two hours of live-streamed in-person Fete excitement, then experience a chance to debrief and integrate new learning with your peers. Registration remains open through Thursday, October 17, 2024.
Alumni Speakers: We're thrilled to welcome nine incredible Alumni speakers to Fete this year, including Bhumi Trivedi, Jeff Miller, Capella Fahoome, Iris Cai, Sandy Blaine, Tricia Fox Ransom, Andrew Soren, and our Fete 2024 EmCee, Jill Schulman along with Virtual Fete moderators Jordana Cole and Ann Parthemore. We can't wait for their insightful, inspiring, and practical presentations and workshops!
Scholarship Fund: We recognize it takes a financial commitment to attend Fete. Thanks to the generosity of MAPPsters, we have a scholarship fund to reduce the cost for attending in-person Fete. If you are experiencing financial hardship and would like to attend Fete, please email MAPP.18 Class Reps/Fete organizers Zhenya Evans and Dana Emanuel to indicate your interest in a Fete scholarship.
Any proceeds from Fête fund MAPP Alumni Association-related programming (including future Fêtes) so we can all continue to foster individual, organizational, and community flourishing.
Fete 2024 will be hosted at The Study hotel in University City, adjacent to Penn's campus. If you would like to stay at The Study before Fete we have a small hotel room block reserved at a discounted rate; please reserve your room by September 20th using this unique link to ensure the discount.
