I saw the announcement on their Facebook

See photos here from two years ago at St. Seraphim where you can also see the fresco project in their temple. The final photos are from last year at St. Lawrence

My husband and I had a wonderful time at the seminar last year.

The schedule for the 2011 Seminar is now posted on Facebook as well as the registration form.

The “PSALM: Pan-Orthodox Society for the Advancement of Liturgical Music” Facebook site is called just that.

The Facebook site for the 2011 Seminar is “Liturgical Singing Seminar,2011” Here under “More Info” click on “See More” to bring up the schedule for both days.

Further down on that site see: “Liturgical Singing Seminar Registration Feb 11 - 12, 2011” Anne Schoepp posted January 3 at 10:09am

For those not on Facebook, they posted “psalm website should be current by January 7 with complete detail.” so they obviously are trying to get that done but as of this moment it is not updated.
