SYMPOSIUM LOCATION

Barcode Long Island Symposium events will be held in Grace Auditorium (#1 on map below), Nicholls-Biondi Hall (#2), and Bush Lecture Hall (#3).
Parking is extremely limited in the CSHL on-campus lots. After student and mentor drop-off at Grace Auditorium, we request that school buses park in the Cold Spring Harbor Jr./Sr. High School parking lot on Lawrence Hill Rd. (purple route). Attendees traveling by car are encouraged to carpool if possible, drop passengers off at Grace Auditorium, and then proceed to the North parking lot (#4 on map below).
