The event took place on Friday, March 26, 2021 from 9am - 3:30pm via Zoom conferencing. We were asking for a $25 fee to cover costs but also offered free spots for faculty and students from New Mexico colleges and universities and scholarships for others for whom the fee would prevent them from attending.
