TVF 2019 will start off with our presenter day. We have an amazing line up this year including Dr. Milton Mills (What the Health), Korin Sutton, Lenore Braford and Paul Drake from The Refuge (our presenting sponsor), and a panel discussion by two local amazing photographers, Daniel Turbert and Jennifer Hadley plus more! New for this year, we are collecting a $10 donation with half going to Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge. Everyone is welcome at our events so please do not let the donation keep you away. The PSI Theater at the Durham Arts Council can fit upwards of 200 people. This will be an excellent venue for our presenters and our attendees. There will be a limited number of vendors in the gallery selling food (int he dining room) and products. Keep checking back for updates on what times everyone will be speaking and save the dates for #TVF2019.
