ACD Exhibits at USITT23
March 2023
After several weeks of preparation, Associated Controls + Design went on the road and exhibited at the USITT23 Annual Conference and Stage Expo. We were able to meet face-to-face with students, end-users, past and potential clients, manufacturer representatives, and fellow experts in the theatrical lighting and rigging industries. Hosting Vari-Lite in our booth, this was one of ACD's most successful years showing what we can do - and we are already counting the days until USITT25 in Columbus, OH. #wedoinspections
