If you ever get a chance to go to a Tapestry Workshop by the University of Virginia, GO!
I’ll warn you ahead of time, it is primarily a lecture workshop. I wasn’t prepared for that, but it was okay.
Most of the presentations were good and either validated what I knew or I gained new knowledge. Everyone made me think about how I teach and what I teach.
There is LOTS of walking. Both knees are really bothering me now. The UVA is not really accessible. They are trying, but it’s a tough place to do it.
The food was out of this world. The dining hall was a bit teenager / college student oriented, but that’s there job. The university catering service is out of this world. We had a different type of meal each time we ate their food. The biggest surprise was getting our honorarium there when we returned our dorm keys..
