Three levels of ticket prices. A $150 ticket includes a private speaker reception and reserve seating near the front. $70 tickets are for open seating with no reserve seats. All seats are close to the front since the hall is intimate and has only 14 rows. A limited amount of $40 tickets are for students and seniors 65 and older with open seating. A valid ID is required at the door. If the $40 tickets sell out, then the $70 tickets will apply.
Disability patrons are eligible for any ticket price. Ushers will seat disability patrons in the aisles in the rear nearest restrooms. All rows are close to the speaker podium in the intimate seating environment.
Private patron reception with the speaker begins at 6:15 p.m. with cash bar and complimentary dessert bar for $150 ticket holders and those who have donated $1,000 or more in the past year. Reception located in the Oshman Multi-Purpose Room to the right of the main entrance, if entering from the parking garage. The speaker leaves the reception at 6:45 p.m. after a half hour. So that everyone in the speaker greeting line has a chance to chat with the speaker, there is no book signing, autographing, or photography with the speaker in the speaker greeting line. In the rest of the reception room, photography and videography are welcome.
During the lecture program, we will ask the audience to silence their personal digital devices, asking for no photography or videography.
