Friday Workshops and Evening Social

Hello, campers! We are looking forward to seeing you this coming Friday at Cabell Library! Workshops will run 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m, followed by a short break, and then a social starting at 5:30 p.m. at Postbellum, a few blocks’ walk away. You’re welcome to arrive at any point between 12:00 noon and 1:00 p.m. to check in, get your badge, and make any last decisions about workshops.

We’ll have snacks on hand on Friday, but if you’re looking for sustenance locally prior to the workshops, check out some local options (multiple with vegetarian or vegan items). Want coffee? Multiple coffee shops surround the VCU campus, but there’s also a Starbucks on the first floor of the library.

All workshops will be held in. Cabell Library, in room 303 (AKA the Lecture Hall). It’s a large space with a divider wall that will be familiar to previous attendees. Please feel free to bring your/a laptop! Look for a little more information on these in the next couple days:
