Come Join Us in Anaheim!

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It’s my pleasure to invite you to the 37th Annual Conference of the National Plasterers Council (NPC) at the Westin Anaheim Resort in Anaheim, California. Each year, our volunteers, members, speakers, and staff come together to deliver an experience that helps you learn, connect, and grow—and this year continues that tradition in a big way.

Our education program features more than fifteen sessions, including a dedicated Spanish-language track with six sessions to ensure broader access and practical learning for every team. Across two days, you’ll find timely, hands-on content—surface prep, pigments and PL cement update, NPC start-up best practices, NPC Pro app, acid washing, waterproofing, logistics, and more! Designed to deliver takeaways you can put to work immediately. Want to go deeper? This year you can add GENESIS by PHTA on site—an optional 2-day class you can tack onto your conference registration (additional fee applies).

Networking remains at the heart of NPC. From the Opening Reception to our Conversation Stations, you’ll have many opportunities to exchange ideas, meet new partners, and strengthen existing relationships. Don’t miss Women of the NPC—a welcoming space for connection and mentorship—and be sure to spend time in the Expo, where trusted suppliers and experts are ready to help you upgrade your capabilities.

A conference favorite returns with the Annual Auction, hosted by Jay and Laura Eaton. Your participation is both fun and impactful. Proceeds support NPC’s research and education initiatives and the Rey Perales Memorial Scholarship, investing directly in the future of our craft.

Whether you’re focused on sharpening technical skills, empowering your team, or growing your business, this conference is built for you. I’m excited to welcome you to Anaheim and to share a week of learning, collaboration, and community.

With appreciation,

NPC Chairman
