Note that this is a personalized link that will only work for you. It may take up to one business day for your registration to be confirmed and for you to receive your personalized Zoom link.

Additionally, we ask that you please create a sign with the word ‘love’ written in a language that is meaningful to you. We will ask you and other attendees to display their signs during our special opening performance.
