On Friday May 6, 2022, several members of CAA who attended the Midwest Archives Conference in Madison gathered for dinner and drinks at The Statehouse, a restaurant located 5 minutes away from the conference hotel. 

Joining CAA Members was G'Jordan Williams, the recipient of the 2020 Travel Fund Award. The Archives and Archivists of Color Interest Group raises funds for this yearly travel grant so it was a pleasure finally meeting G'Jordan after a two year wait.

Everyone had a great time talking to friends and colleagues and meeting new ones. The restaurant had beautiful views of Lake Mendota which added to the ambience. Although it was a smaller group than previous years, a fun time was had by all. 

Thank you to everyone who joined us and we hope to continue the in-person gatherings and meet-ups.
