2026 MBUniversity
MBNA and the Southern Monument Builders Association had a great time in Fort Worth, Texas, from February 26-28, for the monument industry’s premier education event! MBUniversity brought together memorialists and industry professionals for three days of expert-led education, hands-on learning, and valuable networking opportunities. Monument Builders had a great time connecting with peers, exploring new ideas, and gaining tools to grow their business.

The final day, February 28, delivered the heart of MBUniversity with the MBNA Annual Business Meeting, five expert-led education sessions, and a closing reception that celebrated new knowledge and connections.
