We hope to deliver both a virtual and in-person Festival. We are in the beginning stages of planning, but it’s looking as if we’ll have our virtual elements the week before Thanksgiving, around the time that Festival has usually occurred, and it will likely be only one or two days in the timeframe around November 17-19. The in-person Festival of the Cranes is being planned for December 1, 2, and 3. We are currently beginning our talks with stakeholders – City of Socorro, New Mexico Tech, Hunt’s Photo and Video and other photography companies, birding experts, and others – as we plan Festival of the Cranes 2022. Save the dates and stay tuned for more news as plans solidify! Whatever is in store for us globally in 2022, Friends hopes to see you at our future events, be they virtual, hybrid, or in-person!
