How to Use This Calendar
You can view this calendar in Grid or List format.
Grid view
Activities appear in a calendar layout by date. Open an event item to view more information and the registration link. If you use JAWS or NVDA, press Enter or use the right-click menu to access those details.
List view
Activities appear in a list, with the title, date, time, and description shown together. Because List view shows one date at a time, check the description to see whether an activity is a single event or part of a series or longer program.
Month
To look at a different month, use Previous and Next or choose a month from the menu.
