Our in house facility at EO only holds 15 so only Council meetings and boards, small groups meet there.
All of this is pretty much the same for AST. We hold convention once every two years in the even numbered years. In the odd-numbered, we have Officers Academy. Just a couple weeks ago, we held the first Advisors Academy, which was in Chicago; I don't know how often the sorority plans to hold this event.

ETA: The sorority also holds annual Regional Leadership Workshops. They are only a day, and as their name suggests, they include the chapters in a specific region. I don't know how many are held around the country each year.
