Presentations For Adults

FPAN can help facilitate speakers for meetings of your civic group, community organization, youth club, or heritage society, and for lecture series and special events.

Most presentations last about 30-45 minutes with additional time for questions, although programs usually can be tailored for your needs. Specific topics are dependent on speaker availability, so book early! Below are some of the standard talks we give in the region but we are often able to custom make a talk based on your interest. There is no charge for presentations, although donations are gratefully accepted to support FPAN educational programs.

Fill out the “Request A Speaker” form at the top of this page to submit your program request!

We’re taking this opportunity to revamp and rethink our programming. The goal is to provide presentation topics that are more meaningful, relevant, and inclusive. Please excuse the dust as we throw out the old and bring in some new – reconstruction will take a bit of time. If you have an idea for a topic or know what you’re looking for, please feel free to request a speaker by clicking on the button above and submitting a form. Thank you for your patience.
