This year, we are hoping to encourage more local engagement during FAB16 with the FAB16 Hubs! Below is a list of the participating FAB16 Hubs. If there will be local programming at one of the Hubs and they have shared that with us, you will find it by clicking on their name. We ask everyone to keep safety above all else and be mindful of the COVID-19 restrictions in their location.
