    SNAG is significantly cheaper -- only 200 something compared to 700
    something. Nashville is a cheaper area, but with hotel discounts
    there may not be that large a difference. 

    The two conferences are completely different. Clasp is strictly a
    conference with no vendors, and includes sections on creativity and
    business aspects. 

    SNAG will have vendors, multiple exhibitions, at least one gallery
    reception at the beautiful Tiffany room at the Chicago Cultural
    Center across from Millennium Park, the pre-conference workshops,
    the pre-conference business seminars, which are free... 

    So it really depends what you are looking for, what you hope to get
    out of a conference. 

    SNAG in Chicago will be lovely, you should really come.
