W3C TPAC 2020 Social Events

W3C is pleased to offer a combination of live and prerecorded social events this year to give attendees an opportunity to virtually socialize and plan a break from remote meetings. Tip: Could be a fun way to initiate conversation; connect with the growing TPAC community, participants from member organizations, and W3C Staff.

Live events will be held on Monday 26 October and Thursday 29 October at 13:30 UTC and last 20 minutes. Join us, clear your mind and get ready for engaging and stimulating discussions!

We encourage everyone to participate. Learn a delicious new recipe to share. Experience the tranquil benefits of yoga. Listen or view a prerecorded music performance, watch a cooking show from W3C's Keio Team, or take time for a one-minute audio meditation break.

Prerecorded events may be enjoyed at any time. We have a variety of audio performances and a cooking video by W3C Staff and Invited Guests.
