[NFB-Conventions] Inability to open Zoom links on the virtual experience

[Kendra Schaber]

What is going on with the museum event? I keep getting “waiting for the host to start this meeting” and right below it, “please wait” without any changes in the Zoom room. Is this link not working correctly or did this event get canceled? I’m using the direct link that Patti sent me via email.
