There will be two separate workshops with a maximum of 24 students in each session. The morning session is from 10 to 11:30 am, with the afternoon session from 1:30 to 3 pm. Registration cost is $5 per student. A parent or guardian must be present for the workshop. Preregistration at the Society website is required.
