AWS BOOTH | B25008
Stop by the AWS booth every morning throughout the show for a special edition of the Arc Junkies Podcast. Broadcasting live, host Jason Becker and guests will discuss trending topics in the welding industry. Hang back after the discussion and meet some of your favorite social media influencers.
MOBILE EXHIBIT
Stop by the AWS Foundation's Careers in Welding Mobile Exhibit located at the back of the Welding Pavilion and try your hand at virtual welding. Sponsored by Lincoln Electric, the 53-foot trailer will provide information about career opportunities in the welding field, as well as a chance to win a $1,000 scholarship. Also, be sure to check out "Metal Maiden," a metal-art sculpture in the likeness of the Statue of Liberty, created by Stephanie Hoffman and Barbie the Welder as part of the AWS Arc 2 Art project.

Each show day at 2:00 p.m., our panel discussions are covering topics you want to hear.
