Hi, Joan! Unfortunately, since the event cannot cost ARLIS any money,
we are not providing transportation. It's easy enough to get here on
the 36 bus from across the street from the hotel to Emory for $1.75, but
the last bus back to the hotel leaves Emory at 7:30, so it's possible to
travel that way if you want to leave a little early to get back.
However, I was hoping, as we get closer to the time and know who is
coming, that some people might have cars and could drive. Since Kim and
I are pretty much it for setting up and cleaning up, we can't help with
transportation.
Here's the schedule:
