Re: Guild Meeting on Zoom, 2/22 (etc.)
Hi Josh,
Could we add another item to the agenda? I've been working with NAG folk
to plan for ART M1 and M2 courses. Boston/Advent has been discussed as a
desirable hosting location, so I'd like to discuss whether there is
interest in hosting a weekend for both courses, with a visiting tutor from
the UK or Australia.
The course information is at
