We will soon be reaching out to folks who have participated in prior Fests to gauge their intent to join us in person.
In the aftermath of the pandemic, we know some folks are loath to gather in large groups nowadays; that's why we'll still have a Zoom component. We also will need to identify a physical venue for the in-person component, and we'll be picking a venue based, in part, on how many folks plan on joining us in person. If you're interested in updates, we strongly encourage you to register for the Fest e-group here: http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/swlfest This is the best way to keep up-to-date on Fest happenings without having to check the Fest website for updates.
