Please note that if you were a registered attendee at the 2023 Convention, these programs are available to you free of charge. However, you must access them from a Gesneriad Society email communication sent to convention attendees last October. 

You will receive a PDF file that has links to all the presentations.  You don’t need to log into Dropbox to view or download the files. These sessions are available as downloadable MP4 files – which means that they are yours to keep and add to your gesneriad library. The MP4 file format is compatible with both Windows and Apple products.

Please note that while you can have as many people as you want in the room listening, you cannot share your link with others.
