Central Valley Education Summit

Join us for an engaging day of thought leadership, innovation, and networking. Gain valuable insights from industry experts, participate in CEU-accredited sessions and connect with fellow professionals in the education and design space.

The Central Valley Education Summit is an annual gathering hosted at Tangram’s Fresno showroom that brings together K–12 leaders, higher education partners, architects, designers and industry experts from across the region. Designed as a forum for connection and growth, the Summit focuses on innovative learning environments, emerging trends in education design, and collaborative strategies to better serve students throughout the Central Valley.

The morning agenda includes accredited CEU offerings, a panel discussion featuring regional education and design leaders, and local project spotlights that highlight real work happening right here in the Valley. What began as a local idea has quickly become a meaningful platform for thought leadership, partnership, and elevating education spaces in our community.
