Hughes symposium registrations near cap in Lawrence
Registration for next year’s Langston Hughes symposium in Lawrence nears 500, with about 300 signed up and two months to go. Organizers say the event may cap at 500 due to hotel room limits, while funding efforts total about 275000 to cover costs and discounted rates. Notable speakers include Alice Walker and Danny Glover, with presenters from the U S and abroad.
