Exhibitor information

Being an exhibitor at People with Disabilities Awareness Day gives disability-related organizations the opportunity to meet a large number of people with disabilities, their family members or those who advocate for them.

Exhibitors and their table workers will be notified before the event your table location. After you have have unloaded your supplies with our Door Leaders, go directly to your table. Skip the registration tables and a volunteer will come by to check you in. If you cannot find your table, ask any volunteer. They will be able to assist you.

Exhibitors can begin set up at 10:30 a.m. We ask that all exhibitors be set up by noon.

DRS will do our best to honor requests for electricity. Please bring power strips, extension cords and offer to share with your neighbors if the need arises.

We are hosting our event at the Oklahoma History Center. The exhibit tables will be throughout the building. The table floor plans are below.

Due to limited space, exhibit tables are assigned by invitation. If you have not received an invitation but want to exhibit, feel free to register as an exhibitor and you will be added to the waiting list. The waiting list is filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

As always there is no cost for a table, but your organization/program must be disability-related.

PWDAD Event Flyer

Check out the event flyer and help us spread the word by sending it to all your friends. Tell them how important it is to inform our state Legislators about the issues that affect the disability community, to come and visit your table and stay for the award program.
