@nightkitchen - Stacey Mann, Director of Learning Strategies, Night Kitchen Interactive

Chat #2: Using free and low-cost apps to engage visitors
Thursday, May 29, 1-2pm ET
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chat with:
@garibaygroup - Cecilia Garibay, Principal, Garibay Group
