Travis County Photography Workshop (Online) Tuesday, 3/24 at 2 PM

If you are looking for an online learning opportunity next week, I will be conducting a Travis County Photography Workshop via Zoom next Tuesday March 24th, at 2 PM.  I tried conducting the workshop via Zoom with a 4-H'er this morning and it worked pretty well, so let's plan on doing this!  If you are interested, please email me at Nathan.Tucker@agnet.tamu.edu and I'll email you the link early next week, either Monday or Tuesday.
