Event will be Livestreamed for people who cannot attend in person

Link for the Livestream

From John: I have attached a live stream link for those people who can't make it. They're welcome to come in person, because it's a big venue, but if they can't make it, the live stream link is below. I talk on the history of the Puget Sound Indian wars and my personal story as a blind person finding a new career in art."
