Unfortunately Mr. Robinson will not be able to attend but don't let that stop you from taking advantage of the opportunity to come visit some of the most spectacular rock art in the world.

Accompany Dr. Carolyn Boyd, Executive Director of SHUMLA, as she describes her ground-breaking research. Be among the first to hear about new developments. Space is limited! For information, call the SHUMLA office at 432-292-4848, or E-mail programs@shumla.org.
