It is the intention of the ALAA to have a presence at as many major furry conventions as possible. This not only includes having a discussion panel as part of the scheduled events, but will also provide a means of getting as many people registering their interest in participating in the ballot process for the Award.

    It is intended that the presentations will be at as many different furry conventions as can be managed within the timeframe allowed by nominating and voting. The 2007 Awards presentations are due to be held at the Morphicon in Columbus, Ohio, May 16 – 18, 2008.

    The 2006 Awards presentations were held at Califur in Costa Mesa, California. Rocket City FurMeet was the venue for the presentation of the 2005 Awards, Anthrocon was the venue for the 2004 Awards, and C-ACE was the venue for the 2003 Awards.
