We have two events coming up next month so please save the date if you are able to attend either, or both.
In a change from previous years, our major annual event will be a virtual-only User Group that is a free public meeting, separate from SIGGRAPH. We will still have a Birds of a Feather session at SIGGRAPH but that will be in-person only for SIGGRAPH attendees and is being repurposed as a recap of the User Group, and an open discussion of the issues raised.

- Tuesday, August 1st, 1pm PT / 4pm ET / 9pm BST
