Get a little education
while having fun at the fest!
All seminars are held in meeting rooms across the hall from the festival.

In most cases, beverages will be served at the seminars. You cannot bring
beverages into the seminar room. Seminar fees, which cover materials, will
be collected at the door. Seminars run approximately 45-55 minutes.
