12:00PM - 2:00PM (EDT)  

Open Space

The concept of Open Space allows for non-predetermined groups to form and discuss in depth topics. Are you interested in gathering with other youth in AVP? Do you want to meet with everyone that identifies as a person of color? Have you recently read a book or article that you'd like to discuss? This time will be blocked off for facilitators to self-organize into topics of discussion. Reach out to [email protected] for information on how to utilize AVP-USA's zoom during this time. 

3:00PM - 4:00PM (EDT)
