For many people interested in flags, a NAVA meeting is often their first opportunity to meet with others that share that interest.
Each year NAVA holds its annual meeting somewhere in the United States or Canada, the largest convention of flag scholars and
enthusiasts in the continent. NAVA's meetings are nearly always scheduled for the U.S. Columbus Day/Canadian Thanksgiving weekend.

Past Meetings
|
NAVA holds its annual convention throughout the United States and Canada. Since NAVA 11 in 1977, most conventions have been
represented by an official flag. The flag is often adopted from suggestions submitted by members and the design usually reflects
the host city, state, or province.
