Location: via Zoom (click to register on the website)

Host: Todd Pierce, WAPA Program Chair

Join us on for a WAPA Virtual Happy Hour—an informal Zoom gathering to relax, get to know others in the WAPA community, make new connections, and strengthen our professional and social networks. This month’s loose theme is “Harvest Rituals & Spooky Delights”: share your favorite fall traditions, Halloween rituals, seasonal foods, scary movies, haunted adventures, or whatever this time of year means to you. The theme is only a starting point—the conversation can wander wherever it wants. Bring a drink or snack, meet some fellow anthropologists, and enjoy the conversation.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The Zoom link, including instructions for joining the event, will be provided in the confirmation message you will receive after registering. You will also receive a reminder email with the link around 3:00 pm the day of the event.
