Expo Day 2: Education

On Day 2 learn, practice, master the skills featured on Day 1. There are five workshops; each starts at 9:30 am. Ticket-holders can choose which workshop they want to attend. Where there is sufficient interest, we have added an afternoon workshop session, in addition to (and a repeat of) the morning workshop.

(Most ticket-holders have already chosen their workshop. And due to the proximity of the event, final spots are filling fast. We ask anyone who wants to attend a particular class to sign up as soon as possible.)
