Conferences, Conferences.

There's a number of conferences I've gotten information on, so I will spread the word - here they are:

I will be presenting things at NESAT in Oulu, Finland - and I'm all excited about it! The conference will take place May 17-22. NESAT is only every three years, and it's like some kind of family reunion in a way, as the textile archaeology field is rather small, and after a while, you know most people in it. So I'm already looking forward to meeting friends and colleagues from all over Europe again, and to seeing a bit more of Finland and of Stockholm on the way there and back. I'm also already thinking hard about the best way of doing my tablet weaving demonstration...

Further ahead into the future:

There will be a Nordic Tabletweaving Conference at 11-13 September at Länsmuseet Gävleborg, Gävle, in Sweden. There will be courses held in Nordic languages and in English; you can learn more about the event and find the preliminary sign up here.

The EXAR conference 2020 will take place in the Archäologisches Landesmusuem Brandenburg (Paulikloster) in Brandenburg an der Havel, in Germany. Date for the conference is October 1-4, 2020, the CfP is coming next spring.

Thank you! I'll see you at NESAT. The EXARC is a dream, but I don't think the budget will allow it. (Even though I have the perfect thing for it.)

It's always sad not to be able to get to a conference that one would like to participate in, because time and/or money won't allow it. Especially if there's a thing to present that would be a perfect fit. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you might find a way to attend!
