- Registration is now closed.
The University of North Texas is located in Denton approximately twenty-five miles north of DFW International Airport. Learn more about our College of Music and the Music Library. For attendees, we recommend purchasing a Day-use Permit for $5.00. To do this, create a guest account with UNT Transportation Services. Day-use permits allow visitors to park in an Eagle lot. For attendees with a Day-Use Permit, Eagle Lot 27 is closest to the Music Building.
While the UNT campus is reopening fully in the fall, we realize there is still a great deal of uncertainty regarding travel and the day-to-day operations of universities. We have every hope that an in-person conference will proceed as planned but are prepared to move the conference fully online. Such a decision will be made and announced with as much notice as possible.
We look forward to hosting this event and meeting attendees. Please direct questions to this inquiry form.
