Several fun interactive events planned for children and adults throughout the four day event, and the APS will have its excellent introductory stamp collector help center for those interested in learning more about the hobby, especially in their Youth Center. Among the highlights, the APS will be exhibiting a copy of the Inverted Jenny and a free frank envelope from George Washington. Also this year the APS is organizing a "Ye Olde Passport" where one can gather commemorative cancels from the various philatelic societies.Over 40 different philatelic societies will be holding their annual meetings during the convention, and many of these meetings will be open to the public. The APS is also organizing several talks on a variety of philatelic subjects during the course of the event.
