At the American Cheese Society Annual Conference, we celebrate a vibrant and growing market for world-class American-made cheeses. Our commitment to education, connection, and celebration ensures the next generation of ACS members is prepared to lead the industry into the future.

Thank you for joining us in Louisville, Kentucky!

Louisville’s rich quilting heritage inspired ACS 2026, reminding us that the strongest communities are stitched together piece by piece, where every patch, thread, and stitch comes together to create something bigger, brighter, and more beautiful. Just like a quilt, the cheese community is pieced together from many parts: makers, mongers, producers, retailers, and enthusiasts — all joining to create unforgettable experiences, shared learning, and celebrations of all things cheese.
