Regular ferries run to Nantucket from Hyannis and Martha's Vineyard. You can view the schedule here: https://www.nantucketferries.com/. Given the timing of the conference agenda, we recommend arriving at 9:15 am on the Steamship Authority fast ferry and departing at 5:40 pm on the Hy-Line.

The Great Harbor Yacht Club is about a 10-minute walk from the ferry terminals. Ride shares and taxis are also available. Please reach out to us if you require assistance getting to the venue.

The Wave, Nantucket's public transportation service, is available from the ferry terminal and stops very near to the Great Harbor Yacht Club. For schedule information, go to https://www.nrtawave.com/.

Please do not park at the the Great Harbor Yacht Club. Limited public parking is available across from Sayle's Seafood in the dirt lot facing the harbor. We strongly encourage walking, carpooling, or public transit.

Posters will be available for viewing during lunch hour and throughout breaks. If you'd like to present a poster, please reserve both a "General Admission" and a "Poster Presenter" ticket. We will reach out to you to confirm your poster title and description.
