During the time periods when tone judging is in progress there will be sessions in a separate room with various qualified members responding to questions from attendees on specific violin making topics. A log of questions and requesters will be created and kept at the registration desk. Sessions will be scheduled in response to the log and each day a list of topics and times will be posted. The sessions will be open to anyone interested in the topic to be addressed.
