This space is designed for participants to include the final logistics of their local workshops! If you have planned more than one, please include all workshops as separate columns. The sooner you are able to provide us with this information, the sooner we will be able to advertise your workshops!

Please do not plan any workshops for Jan 27-28, as the JWST ETC will be down for the release of ETC 1.5.1 during that time.

COVID-19 update:

Due to the current COVID-19 crisis the president of Chile has called a Constitutional Exception of Catastrophe for 90 days to stop Covid-19 here in Chile.

After discussions with the administration of the Universidad de Antofagasta, we regrettably report the cancellation of the physical meeting of AJPW2020. However,we are committed to helping our community submit good proposals to JWST GO1 cycle. Therefore due to the important nature of AJPW2020 we are making provisions to allow AJPW2020 to be accessible via remote participation on Zoom. This will allow attendees to participate without having to leave their homes during this time. https://ajpw2020.tumblr.com/post/612952843980341248/ajpw2020-covid-19-update

If anybody is confused as to how to add a row, here goes: You first need to get editing privileges. Then you need to log out and log back in (I think). Then click edit. Then put your mouse clicker in one of the table boxes, then look to the top of the screen, to the right of "responsive", there will be buttons. One of them, if you leave your mouse hanging on it, will say "insert row below". Click that one.
