Winter 2022

Update (January 10, 2022): In light of the rapidly evolving pandemic, we have decided to hold this winter's workshop remotely instead of in-person. A zoom link will be emailed directly to workshop participants. Given the prevalence of the virus and the very real potential for us as a group to contribute to its spread, we can't in good conscience go forward with an in-person workshop at this time. Thanks to everyone for your understanding and flexibility -- we very much appreciate it. Please know that all of us were really, really looking forward to seeing everyone in person this winter.
