We are aware of\, and apologize for\, the accessibility barriers associated with this room. If you require the use of an elevator to reach this room\, one of the CLT staff will have to access the elevator with you\, using their key card. Please let us know in advance so that we can facilitate a smooth and timely transition to the basement.\nWe also ask that participants be respectful of those with significant allergies and avoid wearing perfume\, aftershave\, cologne\, and highly scented hairspray\, soaps\, lotions\, and shampoos.
