A special webinar, starring: our vibrant community! ☆ In this webinar, we first discussed our volunteers' valuable work, and the impressive impact of their observations and contributions.

Next, we tried an experiment: spotlighting members of the audience so that they could unmute and share stories about their involvement in the AAVSO, in the own words. The experiment was a resounding success, and we heard inspiring stories from AAVSO community members all around the globe.
