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

[Kendra Schaber]

Hi Patti!
Ok, I’m glad it wasn’t me and that it was on your end. I’m glad you were able to figure out the problem! While I’m here, can you please send me the correct link to the museum we’re trying to build? I think I might have found the fundraiser page for it, but not the other page. I’m trying to locate the other page to that museum.

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.
