The 31st American Voices seminar will be held on Friday and Saturday 11-12 October, 2024, starting Friday lunchtime and finishing on Saturday afternoon.
The seminar is held in Turku (a 2-hour train ride from Helsinki and Tampere), and it is organized by the Fulbright Finland Foundation and the Department of English at the University of Turku.
Register to the seminar by September 6 by filling this SurveyMonkey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/AmericanVoices
Read information below on the program, travel, and accommodation.
This a family-friendly event, so if you have spouse and/or children with you, they are warmly welcome to come to join us for the seminar days. However, the family members’ travel to and from Turku must be covered by the grantee. Please let us know if your family members are joining so that we can plan for meals and accommodation. Children are welcome to attend the seminar, however, please note that the program can be tiring for small children. Unfortunately, we are not able to arrange child care during the event.
We will not be able to get money back if we reserve meals and accommodation for family members who do not show up. You will not receive a confirmation message from SurveyMonkey after filling in the registration form (you will be redirected to www.fulbright.fi frontpage after you have submitted your answers). Thus we recommend writing down which meals your family members will be joining. We will be adding the itinerary to this page closer to the seminar, and it also includes joining family members' information.
However, if you and/or your family members are sick, please prioritize your health by staying home and resting. Let Maija and Heidi know, if you or your family members are unable to attend for health reasons.
