Webinars: two per month, with most consisting of presentations by two astronomy researchers. Each presentation lasts about 30 to 45 minutes, followed by Q & A (so webinars with two speakers last about two hours).
How-to Hours: one per month, each introducing a specific practical aspect of variable star astronomy. Each hour starts out with a 30-minute talk, followed by a roughly 30-minute Q & A period. Topics are selected based on the feedback from our community on on past webinars.
