ZOOM (Hybrid)

This six-week class hybrid class (both on Zoom and in-person) will explore factors which help us find satisfaction and meaning as we age.  We will examine what research reveals about aging and happiness, identify some common barriers to happiness, explore possible resources for finding richness and meaning in later life, look at the role of sorrow and loss, and consider the challenges and opportunities of living alone.  Participants will have opportunities to share their personal ideas and experiences and explore common themes.

ZOOM

In this online art course we will examine the wonderful world of children’s book illustrations, and the variety of mediums and techniques artists/illustrators have used to bring authors’ words to life, sometimes replacing words entirely! We will touch on steps involved in creating a children’s book.  Each week there will be an optional assignment experimenting with the techniques used by the artists.
