This year we are pleased to be able to offer the course face-to-face in Farmington, NM at the San Juan College's (SJC) Henderson Fine Arts Center in Rooms 9008 and 9010.
Although we do not have a crystal ball, the SJC currently has no COVID restrictions. We encourage you to consult the latest CDC guidelines. We hope to offer the short course face-to-face in its entirety, including the popular field trip from Farmington, NM to Durango, CO
Registration:
- Register Here!!!
- Register Early!! - It is important that you register and pay for the short course ASAP. This is because we must adhere to a registration cap of 80 participants for this face-to face event -- once this number of participants has been achieved all registration for the short course will be closed. We don't want to see anyone get shut out especially since we have not been able to do this event face-to-face for the past 2 years.

The registration fee will increase to $450 after 5pm on 7/11/22.- Cost includes:
- Lunches and breaks on Tuesday and Wednesday (and 1 break on Thursday)

Important Notes:
- As of 6/13/22, the SJC had no Covid restrictions, such as masking or social distancing. Again, we encourage you to consult the latest CDC guidelines. Should the SJC change its policy to increase COVID restrictions, our back-up plan will be to offer the short course virtually during the same week and same general time frame (i.e., July 19-21, 2022). If this were to happen, your registration fee will only be $60 which would mean you would receive a $340 credit if you previously paid to attend the face-to-face event. We of course hope none of this will happen but wanted you to be aware of our contingency plan.
Cost:
Early Registration $400, Late Registration $450
