This year at Snap we’ve reserved Thursday evening for you to explore the amazing local SLC eateries. After our Thursday afternoon classes, we’ll divide up into small “niche” groups so you can meet other bloggers who share your interests. You self-select which niche you want to meet with and find their room (see list below). After introductions, we’ll break for dinner on the town! Each niche group has a group leader who will be heading up a group dinner at a local restaurant. Feel free to eat with your niche, or with a group of Snap friends, it’s up to you!
Niches & Meet-up Locations
- Sewing – Sewing Lounge
- DIY – Wyoming Room
- Craft – Idaho Room
- Lifestyle – Arizona Room
- Food – Ballroom Lobby
